Two questions:<br />
1) How can I use telnet to test a NAT to a new e-mail server, behind a firewall, before changing the MX record to point to that new Exchange server? &nbsp;All the exampes I find describe using the domain name in the test and when I try the IP address instead it does not work.<br />
<br />
2) Where can I find a screen / log where I can see both incoming and outgoing e-mail traffic on an Exchange 2003 server? &nbsp;I want a place I can do a quick check to see if e-mail is flowing in and out when someone says &quot;e-mail is not working&quot;. &nbsp;The queue screen in Exchange 2003 server management seems to only show outbound e-mail.<br />
<br />
Thanks
