Are you using a seperate SMTP server(like maybe your notes servers?)Are you forwarding these messages to the SMTP server, or expecting Exchange to grab them?
Do you want MS Exchange to be the default Notes foreign domain for the Exchange Server organisation?

I just need to configure a exchange server for internet mail send/recieive under our established domain. eg we have 4c.com and the gateway is 4cnet.4c.com...thats the notes one, I want to create a sub domain that works sperately, eg test.4c.com We are only conducting an experiment, coz one of our ex colleagues did it for a clent and hewas succesful...we create a DNS MX entry and A entry but nothing! We were able to send but not receive...when someone sends to the exchange server he will get back an error from the server sying that the recepient could not be reahed, an error that say something like "too many hops"... and the starnge thing is even without the DNS entery we can send emails....... and the exchange server is obtaning te IP configuration frm the DHCP..
