Need to send SMTP mail through two smarthosts

Hi,

This is our situation:

Currently our domain name is, for example, 123A.com. We send SMTP mail
through the default Exchange 2000 SmallBusiness SMTP Connector using a
designated smarthost.

We will be adding another (2nd) domain name to our business, for
example, 123B.com. Thus we will need to send SMTP mail through another
smarthost that was given to us.

Question(s):

1) Do I need to create a new SMTP connector for domain 123B.com?
2) Do I need to create an additional SMTP Virtual Server for domain
123B.com?

Also for retrieving POP3 email, let's say employee 'Paul' will now have
paul@123A.com and paul@123B.com coming into the Outlook 2003 Inbox (I
believe?) However, when 'Paul' sends email, will the From: field
designate paul@123A.com , or paul@123B.com?

Thanks.

You do NOT need to seup a second SMTP connector simply because you will be
receiving emails from a second email domain. The smarthost connector simply
says "here is a mail server that I want to use to send out all email".

As far as receiving emails from your new, second email domain, Microsoft
already has a KB arrticle on that subject:
