Hi,
We are running MS Exchange 2003 and a perimeter server(relay server),this serves as a spam filtering(GFI Mail essentials) for our outbound and inbound emails.
Our mother company told us that the spam filtering will be transfer in their servers (just transferred). Were one of the subsidiaries.
So my task is to remove the perimeter server in our domain. The default SMTP Virtual server can only set to a single smart host(set in perimeter server). they give us 3 smart host(IP) for load balancing.

The perimeter server set thru SMTP Connector.i delete the IP of the perimeter server and enter the 3 smart host(IP assign to our mother company),(forward all mail through this connector to the following smart hosts). restart Microsoft Exchange Routing Engine and
Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP).

But test outbound email was failed.Bounced back error:
"You do not have permission to send to this recipient. For assistance, contact your system administrator.<domain name #5.7.1 smtp;.... <email add>: Recipient address rejected: Access denied>:

Please HELP!!! Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

Following this, you did the correct job to create SMTP Connector and add the three IP Addresses to it.

However, did you add the IP Address [] OR using {} when entering three IPs in Smart host section?

Also, what is the address space you specified for sending emails outside?

Morning..!
I use the IP address with brackets.sample[172.0.1.1];[172.3.0.0];[172.0.0.0].
I set(only default) the address space to * and cost 1.

Respectfully,
Liza
