Hello Everyone,<br />
<br />
I have Exchange 2007. I have been tasked with allowing a external program to relay through the Exchange server , for marketing email blasts. The reason for the relay is that the blast will say it is sent from my email domain. Currently we are sending these through a 3rd party company but some of the emails are being caught in spam filters due to the header being spoofed (to make it look like it comes from my server).<br />
<br />
The blast is usually to around 500 recipients.<br />
<br />
Here are my questions:<br />
1)What do I need to check on Exchange to make sure that it can support the added volume? CPU and mem look fine on it but I am scared that when a email blasts happens , that it will prevent email from being sent/received in a timely matter.<br />
2)Would this cause the company to get black listed?<br />
3)Are copies of relayed emails , stored in the message stores?<br />
<br />
Thank you very much for your time and help.
