Exchange server setup
I recently setup a sbs 2003 server I followed the SBS 2003 setup suggestion, and my internal domain name is called nuzoomediainc.local. I have also registered an Internet domain name www.nuzoo.biz. I also have a website www.nuzoo.biz setup with email. I'm now ready to move from external POP3 accounts to an internally hosted Exchange mailboxes. How do I get mail addressed to nuzoo.biz delivered to my exchange server. I thought all I had to do was change the MX record on nuzoo.biz to the IP address of my sbs.

Make sure the email addresses user@nuzoo.biz are associated with the AD users (on the email tab of the user properties). If not, you should update your recipient policy to have those addresses created automatically. Then it should work...
MX record pointing to the external IP which NAT into your SBS internal IP

spiderbuzz,
Please see this article about the steps you need to take: http://sbsurl.com/pop2smtp
Also, definitely listen to DrDave242... everything you need to do to configure your SBS is done with the Configure Email and Internet Connection Wizard (CEICW -- which is linked as Connect to the Internet in the Server Management Console > To-Do List)
A visual how-to for the CEICW is here: http://sbsurl.com/ceicw

OK. I'm using sbs firewall. I have followed "Configure E-mail and Internet Connection" Wizard and have declared nuzoo.biz. From what I can tell there is a recipient policy for spider@nuzoo.biz. When I go to mail.nuzoo.biz I am directed to the company web page for nuzoo.biz. When i send mail otside of the network to spider@nuzoo.biz it goes nowhere??????

Thanks you all. I'm not sure what the problem was it just started working. Perhaps it was simple DNS propagation.
