Description:-
The Configure (Smart Host) Internet Mail wizard in SBS 2008 allows you to setup a
Smart Host for outbound Internet email. This wizard configures the Internet Send
Connector in Exchange with the provided host information and credentials.
The only validation done by this wizard is that the host name resolves to an IP and
that the IP is not the same as the one currently in use by the SBS server.
The wizard will ask for a host name or an IP to be used and it will configure the
Send Connector to use it. The wizard will also configure the authentication, if
credentials are provided, using Basic authentication only.
Any other configuration needs to be performed manually by directly editing the Send
Connector. A very common need is to use a differnet outbound port, for example,
TCP/689.
To change that do the following (this assumes a default SBS 2008 configuration with
one send connector):
Open Exchange Management Shell (Run as Admin)
Type:
Get-SendConnector | Set-SendConnector -Port 689
If you need to change any authentication options, you can do it from PowerShell or
from the Exchange Management Console, under Organization Configuration, Hub
Transport, Send Connectors, properties of the Windows SBS Internet Send "Server
Name" connector, Network tab, click Change under Smart host authentication.
