Problem with Exchange email - GFI mailessential

HI

I am facing a unique problem. I have 192.168.0.2 server where my GFI mailessential was installed. I have my exchange server 192.168.0.3.

Today we had a crash for the server 192.168.0.2 hence we installed the applicaiton on 192.168.0.4

Now my emails are being received on 192.168.0.4 but they are nor being accepted by my exchange 2010 server.

We are doing the same from IIS SMTP smart host forwarding to 192.168.0.3

When anyone sent emai from outside they get the NDR.

This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification. Delivery to the following recipients failed. Network@Mydomain.com Final-Recipient: rfc822;network@mydomain.com Action: failed Status: 5.7.1 Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for network@mydomain.com

So i change the setting for the relay to integrated and now i see that everything is stopped in the QUE folder on 192.168.0.2

Please suggest how can i resolve this problem. my production is down.

Best regards

Your exchange server receive connector is probably only set to allow relay of messages from 192.168.0.2.

In the properties of your receive connector go to the network tab and add 192.168.0.4 to where it says "Receive mail from remote servers that have these IP addresses"
The receive connectors in Exchange 2010 Management Console are under Server Configuration -> Hub Transport I believe.

Hi
i have already added 192.168.0.4 in the received mail from remote server settings.
Any other settings

Best regards

The 550 might be from the server running GFI Mail Essentials, have you allowed it to do SMTP relay to the Exchange box?
On the GFI box in IIS Manager, right click on SMTP Virtual Server and select Properties. Under the Access tab click on the Relay button in the Relay Restrictions sections to see which servers can relay through it.

I am getting following event in my GFI server

Message delivery to the host 192.168.0.3 failed while delivering to the remote domain 'geminicorp.be' for the following reason: The remote SMTP service rejected AUTH negotiation.
 The SMTP verb which caused the error is 'AUTH'.  The response from the remote server is '250-excahnge.yadomain.local Hello [192.168.0.4]
250-TURN
250-SIZE 2097152
250-ETRN
250-PIPELINING'.
On the new server running GFI have you configured any authentication methods in the SMTP service? Also, check what authentication the receive connector in exchange is expecting. Try them both with Anonymous and retest.
When i change the same to anoymous i get the NDR for Delivery failuers
