Setup guide for Exchange 2007/2010

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

This document will describe how to setup MS Exchange 2007/2010 for configurating with SmartPOP2Exchange.

 

1. Add Exchange System Manager to a MMC console

Open any MMC console (*.msc file) or create a new one by executing "mmc.exe".

Choose File | Snap-In add/remove from the menu. Then select Microsoft Exchange and Add it.

 

2. Setting the accepted domains

You need to tell the Exchange Server, which mail domains it is responsible for.

Choose the Accepted Domains tab in the Hub Transport settings of the Organization Configuration.

You may create one entry for every domain used by your users or by yourself and create a single entry for accepting all mail messages. This is only recommended, if the Exchange server is not accessible from outside your network.

3. Setting anonymous access to the receiving SMTP

Unlike the Exchange 2003, the option enabling "Anonymous user" for incoming mails is not activated.

We recommend enabling this option to by-pass SMTP authentication settings in SmartPOP2Exchange.

4. Configure Outgoing Mail

By default the Exchange 2007 Server has no Send Connectors. So you need to set one up yourself.

Choose the Send Connectors tab in the Hub Transport settings of the Organization Configuration and add a new Send Connector for outgoing mail with the following settings:

- Name: <choose one>

- intended use: Internet

- Address space: *

- Network settings:

 - choose the first option (DNS)

   if your Exchange is directly connected to the internet and has a fixed IP address.

 - use the second option (smart host)

   if you need to send your mail through the SMTP server of your provider.

   You have to add that server name and enter your username/password on the following setup page

   by using the "Basic Authentication" option.

 

 

5. Configure SmartPOP2Exchange

To install SmartPOP2Exchange on your computer, you simply run the setup file and follow the instructions on the screen.

 

Please start your newly installed SmartPOP2Exchange. If you haven't already created an account, an Account Wizard should appear now. If you can't see the Account Wizard, click the Account Wizard button to open it.
