I've just setup my very first Exchange 2003 Server, and i'm hosting my own domain/email.

The problem is, i can receive, but i can't send an outbound emails.

My current setup is, i'm on a cable link running windows Server 2003 with Exchange 2003 on the top of it. Because i'm on cable and get a dhcp IP address, i'm using DYNDNS.ORG's custom DNS solution which allows me to create all my records such as my MX records and point them to my server.
My Server is currently behind a router which HAS been configured for port 25.

Now, i've tried everything i can think of, change the DNS servers within the SMTP Virtual Server, changed the port from 25 to 24, but the wierd thin is, when i install the trial version of GFI Mail essentials and configure it accordingly, it allows me to send outbound mails no problem, but when i remove GFI, it stops again.
I've also tried the Internet Mail tool and that doesn't work either.

Any Help would be much appreciated.

OK, i've just reinstalled everything, and made sure that both my Network card and the SMTP Protocol have all the DNS servers added, and good news, i can now receive and reply to all messages [Smile]

However, although i can reply, i am unable to send directly.

Any ideas?

Many Thanks
