If you are not using POP3 or IMAP4 (with Exchange Server 5.5) clients, Go to the Internet Mail Service Object in the Exchange Administrator and select properties and then the Routing Tab. Turn off SMTP rerouting. Additional functionality was added with Exchange Server 5.5. You can read the readme file for detailed information on how to configure the UCE feature if you have that product. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wesley.Peace@ncons.com Microsoft BackOffice/Exchange MVP He who has a why can endure any how. -Friedrich Nietzsche Brett Graham wrote in message <6desa8$8t7$1@flex.news.pipex.net>... >We have recently been getting reports in our log files about outgoing >messages.
