We currently have domino servers in 1 location and an exchange server in another and would like all mail to come through a domino server. There is only a single internet domain.
Example:
user.a@domain.com
user.b@domain.com
The question is how can we route mail to users on the exchange server?
Some ideas are:
-
Create a user for each exchange user and forward to exchange from domino.
-
Use the exchange to notes connector.
Anyone done this before?
Thanks in advance!

Phil,From the R5 admin manual:
Setting up a smart host
A smart host is a host to which SMTP-routed messages are sent when the message recipient cannot be found in the local Internet domain’s directory. When a message is received, the Router looks for the recipient’s address to see if it is in the local Internet domain or in an alias Internet domain. If they are, then the Router checks the Person document to see where to send the message. If your organization uses other mail systems, users of those systems may not be in the Domino Directory. In that case, you can set up a smart host. For example, if some users are on a UNIX sendmail system but their messages are routed through the Domino mail system, you can set up a smart host.
Is that what you were after? Assuming Exchange can act as an SMTP server you should be able to use a SmartHost.
Cheers, Ian.

Thanks Ian.
Once we switch over I’ll give it a go. Its been that long I forgot all about it 
P.S. Love the ACLHELP server task. Came in handy about 10 minutes ago on an R5 server.
Nice App! Well done!
