The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Sendmail to excahnge server

Asked by gbohrman in SendMail Email Server, Exchange Email Server, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)

Tags: , , ,

I am currently using sendmail and use smart relay to an exchange 5.5 server.  In sendmail.cf i have DS192.168.1.92 which points to an exchange 5.5 server.  We are upgrading to Exchange 2003 and the .92 server is going away. I tried changing to the 2003 exch server address DS192.168.1.24 and restarted everything but it now will not send. I added the IP address of the HP box to be allowed to relay from the SMTP Virtual server in Exchange System Manager.  The following is the error I get when trying to send out an email.  I kind of assume it has to do with DNS but why did it work with Exchange 5.5 and fail with Exchange 2003.
