Using Microsoft Exchange 2003 on Windows 2003 SBS I'm attempting to set it up to send and receive email. It sends just fine, yet it doesnt receive. Thats the problem. Let me know what info I need to post as I see nothing related to Exchange in Event Log. I have it enabled for both incoming and outgoing. &nbsp;All Exchange related services are enabled. MX record is set up on the hosting service to forward email straight to the ip to the server. &nbsp;Que shows 0 like the emails never got there. Firewall is temporarily disabled.
