exchange 2013 not receiving mails
I get a mail failure message when I send a test mail to an account
I've set up an exchange in a win 2012 environment server I can send mail fine, But for some reason I cannot receive mails, and get the above error back
mails are sent to me@mysite.com
I had it working on an earlier installation but unfortunately that one crashed completly
my mail recievers are set up on port 587 as 25 is closed by my isp
any ideas are more than welcome
