In Exchange 2007 - how do you restrict the receive connector for SMTP so that it will only accept email from certain IP addresses?<br />
<br />
In Exchange 2003 - this was in an &quot;accept only from&quot; dialog box. &nbsp;I'm wondering where it is now. &nbsp;Sorry if this was posted somewhere and I didn't find it.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.
