Internet Email

A customer has recently added an Exchange 5.5 server to their network to
allow for internal email. This is working great, but since adding the
server, they are unable to SEND internet email (still able to receive it
however). Client software is Outlook 2000. I'm far from being an expert on
Exchange and most of my experience in on 2k, but feel that this is something
that I should be able to handle. So, what do I need to adjust to fix this?
(something like SMTP forwarding?)

If the Exchange server is not directly connected to the Internet you will
need to set the address to forward all SMTP messages to a SMTP server that
has access to the Internet and will handle your domains messaging. The
settings can be found on the IMC properties page.

If the Exchange server has access to the Internet you will need to be sure
it is configured with a valid FQDN and proper DNS configuration so that it
can resolve addresses.

For information on how the IMS works please read the following TechNet white
