I recently changed ISP. Thus I received a NEW IP-address.
The SBS contains 2 nic's
I use the "mariette knap" methode. 1 internal / 1 external

Exchange uses DNS and smtp to handle it's mail.
I reran the Internet Connection wizard. and set both new
DNS entries and the routers IP-address (routed subnet)

I can send mail but do NOT receive mail
The provider says DNS (public) has been changed
The webserver is functional (both with IP-address and DNS
name (www.mydomain.com)

What can be wrong?

I always ask the isp to telnet into my mail server with the new ip.
That way they are on the line to help troubleshoot. A real domain name
would be helpful.

Hmmm, that must be a special method :-)

Sometimes it takes more then a day for propagation of the new DNS
information to all servers worldwide. Give it at least 24 hours...

Harpert:

From another computer connected to the internet, i.e. your home computer,
get to a command prompt.

type: nslookup type=MX mydomain.com
or
nslookup q=MX mydomain.com

This should show you what ip address your email is going to. When I changed
ISP, it took from Friday afternoon to sometime Tuesday for the nslookup to
correctly display the IP address. They were not kidding when they said 72
hours for the change in Name Servers, and MX records to take effect. Email
resumed about noon on Tuesday.
