Hi stuartgarland,<br />
<br />
You can set up SMTP connectors between the servers so that mail is delivered between them locally.<br />
This would be in addition to the SMTP connector that you use for your default mail delivery.<br />
<br />
You can find out how to do this at : <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/2000/deploy/confeat/12x2kadb.mspx" rel="ugc nofollow">http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/2000/deploy/confeat/12x2kadb.mspx</a><br />
<br />
I hope that this helps.

We currently run 2 email system, both work fine. Both systems are behind a firewall.<br />
<br />
The problem is when one exchange servers looks up the MX record it gets the external address. The problem is that the firewall blocks the external address on port 25. <br />
<br />
You can connect to the other server using the internal address on port 25 without any problems.<br />
