Exchange 2007 and Gmail
I’m running Exchange Server 2007. I have users that also have email accounts with Gmail. (username@googlehosteddoma in.com), these are working fine. However, when I try to send a message from user@myadomain.com to an alies@googlehosteddomain.c om, my server reply’s with the following error:
“#554 5.4.4 SMTPSEND.DNS.NonExistentDo main; nonexistent domain ##“
So what’s happening is Exchange is not letting the message leave the domain. The alias accounts work fine from outside the domain.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks. That worked. i do get a response. But still get the "#554 5.4.4 SMTPSEND.DNS.NonExistentDo main; nonexistent domain ##" error returned from my server when trying to send to an email to an alies address to that domain.

Thanks.
When NSLOOKUP opens, you'll have a simple > prompt. Enter this:
set type=mx
then type out googlehosteddomain.com and hit enter. If DNS doesn't return anything when you do this, then Exchange can't find any DNS records for googlehosteddomain.com and can't send to it as a result.
To fix this, you would need to check your DNS settings to make sure googlehosteddomain.com was being propery resolved with authoritative data. If you have a domain zone in your internal DNS for that domain name, but have no MX records listed, that will cause your problem. If that's the case, you should delete the Zone for that domain.
