Thanks for that Alan - but the problem we have is that all the associates are home based and are using ADSL connections with dynamic IPs. &nbsp;Ideally what I would like to do is to allow them to relay, but to authenticate before doing so.

Thanks Alan - I think OWA is going to have to be the way forward as not all associates have Outlooks - thanks.<br />

Hi we need to allow associates who have an email account on an SBS2011 box (which they access via POP3) to relay mail via the same server. &nbsp;At present they cannot relay - they get '550 5.7.1 Unable to relay'.<br />
<br />
I assume that a new connector is required for this, but am unsure of how to set this up to allow external relay without compromising the security of Exchange.<br />
<br />
Thanks.
