Exchange SErver 2010 and Outgoing relay connector

I currently have 1 exchange server 2010 working. I would like to have a group that I add users in Active Directory to only use a defined specific outgoing relay for secure emailing. I do not want everyone, just certain users in our organization. My understanding is I need to create a relay specifically for a Active Directory group. I'm not sure on what the processes would need to be done on our Exchange or AD server. Thanks

OK, I tried following this article and was able to create a Distribution Group in AD, I also create another Send Connector and have that routing to a smart host 2.2.2.2 I'm trying to create a transport rule, however when I create a new transport rule condition "from a member of a distribution list" and select created AD group. On the Actions I don't see any action that applies to what I'm trying to do and it won't let me get any further.

I created the send and transport connector and defined thru rules to use member from a Distribution list in AD that I have created and defined only me email address for, however I don't believe it's sending out that connector

can you share the command you actually run ?

I used the new connection wizard. I was able on the transport rule to CC a user email address and it does send an email, however it does not go thru the send connector I created. Not sure how to define the Distribution list to use that send connector only.

I tried downloading the RouteBySender, however that also did not appear to send out properly. I've read exchange can not do it you need a third party software to allow this. I'm not sure if this is really true.

Jian An Lim

mostly true.
route by sender always required 3rd party software or code (or hub transport agent)
