How to setup receive connector for web based software in an exchange enviroment

We have a customer who uses a third party software.
they are able to email from this software but they can only send email internally.
No email from this program can go out.

Would I have to setup a receive connector or a send connector in order to send email outside the network.

If you know the public / private IP of application sending emails, you can create externally secured receive connector

Hi,

if you have already annonymous connector which is relaying mails to internal and want to send to external you have to grant permissions to annonymous logon:

Get-ReceiveConnector "Anonymous Relay connector name" | Add-ADPermission -User "NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON" -ExtendedRights "Ms-Exch-SMTP-Accept-Any-Recipient"

check this below article:

Never ever setup anonymous relay connector if your software supports authentication. This is a more secure setup.

Mahesh

U don't need anonymous relay connector

All you need is externally secured connector which will receive emails from specific application IP address and directly relay to internet, when you do so, security checks for that specific App IP will be bypassed
