<div>
Configure the send connector:<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-39187683-1"><span>New-SendConnector -Internet -Name &quot;Internet SMTP Connector (Ex2013)&quot; -AddressSpaces *  </span>
</code></pre>
<br />
or you can do the same thing using EAC.
</div>


<div>
Did you create an internet recieve connector with permissions set at anon?
</div>


<div>
Also check the external MX record.
</div>


<div>
Send connector - under delivery MX record associated wit recipient domain is selected<br />
Scoping - Source Server is selected as the Exchange Server<br />
FQDN - is mywebsite.com
</div>


<div>
Did NOT create receive connector there was one created by default.
</div>


<div>
What do I need to check on the external MX connector?
</div>


<div>
Run the tests: <a href="https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/" rel="ugc">https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/</a>
</div>


<div>
Ran Internet email Test inbound and outbound came back passed both.
</div>


<div>
In your recieve connectors, you have one default connector? &nbsp;or a default connector and an internet recieve connector? &nbsp;On the internet recieve connector, what are your permissions set at? &nbsp;Whats the network range? and authentication set at?
</div>


<div>
Check the event logs for any issues.<br />
<br />
Was it working before?<br />
<br />
Restart the transport service and try again.
</div>


<div>
There are 4 receive connectors. Client Proxy - Hub Transport, Default Frontend - Frontend Transport, Default - Hub Transport, Outbound Proxy Frontend - Frontend Transport. <br />
Authentications all checked except Externally Secured. <br />
Permission groups - all checked except Partners<br />
Network range All Available IPv6 and v4 port 25. &nbsp;This was all in there from the default setup. &nbsp;We made NO changes here., Do we need to?
</div>


<div>
Ok, I'm thinking the recieve connector that needs to be edited is the Default front end. &nbsp;The recieve connector that is intended to recieve mail from anyone on the internet should be set up with-<br />
&nbsp;Authentication- TLS should be the only one checked<br />
Permission- Anon should be only one checked<br />
Network- should have local IP of mail server and port 25 set to recieve<br />
and recieve mail from remote servers should have address ranges like:<br />
0.0.0.0-9.255.255.255<br />
10.0.0.1.0-255.255.255
</div>


<div>
Also, check this article for setting up an internet recieve connector in Exchange 2013<br />

</div>


<div>
made the Default front end changes and still not mail being received.<br />
Deleted the default receive connector and created a new one like in the TechNet article from PaulD77 and still not mail being received. &nbsp;I am sending mail to my mike@mywebsite.com and I receive it on my phone and laptop (not in local Domain). But I do not get it to my desktop (in local Domain). &nbsp;I have mike@mywebsite.com as my SMTP email address in my recipients email address, is that correct?
</div>


<div>
Doesn't it need my email password somewhere in order to pull my email from our website host?
</div>


<div>
So it's gettting delivered but just not to local outlook clients?
</div>


<div>
Do you have OWA setup. &nbsp;If you log into OWA are you seeing the mail that was sent?
</div>


<div>
Yes the email is being sent out without any problems but OWA does NOT receive the mail I send. &nbsp;<br />
Here is how I am sending the mail<br />
<br />
My laptop (Not connected to exchange) using Outlook 2013 with just a connection to the internet. &nbsp;I send an email from one of my email accounts to mike@mywebsite.com and I can receive it in my Outlook 2013 on the laptop but it never gets to OWA that is running connected to My Exchange Box.
</div>


<div>
How can OWA pickup my external email without the password? &nbsp;In Outlook 2013 I have the mail servers setup and before I can send or receive email I need to have my user name and email password saved in the setup. &nbsp;Doesn't OWA need the password also or at least Exchange must need a password to pull the email from our external mail server.
</div>


<div>
Ok i'm a bit confused about your setup. &nbsp;mike@yourdomain.com is connected to the exchange server in question yes?
</div>


<div>
yourdomain.com is the external domain name, the internal domain is yourdomain.local. <br />
Accepted domain is yourdomain.com and yourdomain.local<br />
Receive connector Auth is - Transport Layer Security ONLY<br />
Permission Group is - Anon ONLY <br />
<br />
Trying to send email to mike@yourdomain.com and receive it on my Exchange Server
</div>


<div>
Ok, understanding it a bit more. This is sounding like more of a DNS issue than it is Exchange.<br />
<br />
take a look at this, i know its for an earlier exchange but the basic DNS rules still apply<br />
<br />

</div>


<div>
Created A and MX records. &nbsp;If I make my exchange.yourdomain.com Priority 0 and yourdomain.com Priority 0 the mail only goes to the exchange. &nbsp;If I change the Priority the mail only goes to the external mail. &nbsp;Is there a way to get them to go to both?
</div>


<div>
did you try seting up and internal relay in exchange?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124423.aspx#BKMK_InternalRelayDomains" rel="ugc">http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124423.aspx#BKMK_InternalRelayDomains</a>
</div>


<div>
That works if the user@yourdomain.com does not exist in the local domain then it router the mail to the external email server. &nbsp;I need the external email that is being sent to our employee to go to both the .local and the .com email addresses
</div>


<div>
ok thanks for all the help today. &nbsp;I need to run out for a bit but I will be back working on this tonight. &nbsp;I will try your last suggestion later tonight
