Can send, but not receive email
|
|
|
| Greetings. I've set up a soho, got W2K serv. with AD,
native mode. We have DSL, HW router, with ports 25, 80,
53, and 110 being forwarded to server. Web site (IIS 5)
works fine. We can send email to the outside world and
internally too, but CANNOT RECEIVE.
i feel like a big dummy. if we cannot receive email soon,
we're toast.
please, any thoughts appreciated...
TIA ;>

Do you have an MX record created on a public DNS server that points to your
public IP address, here is an article that explains how to connect Exchange
2000 to the Internet:

Hope this helps

| Oh wow, thanx for replying quickly. i read that good
article last week (honest!). but am a bit confused: i'm
doing all the DNS from here, i.e both internally
(domain.local) and externally (domain.com). In the .com
forward lookup, i created an A record, "mail.domain.com"
and pointed it to the static IP, and then created an MX,
pointing to server (hostname.domain.com). seem right? do i
still have to contact earthlink for an MX?
TIA

You will need to contact someone who has the ability to host your external
DNS, so Earthlink may have to do it for you, if you look at
www.dnsreport.com and enter your domain name it will tell you how your
public DNS records are configured.
Hope this helps
