First I am a newb (there may exist a better way to do this)
I am trying to understand how connectors work
I have a pop3 "mail.mydomain.com"
I want to switch over to an exchange server "mail2.mydomain.com" for about 20 of the 200 users (this will probably be temporary - a few months or up to a year.)
everyone is in the same domain
My intial stab is to forward mail from mail.mydomain.com to mail2.mydomain.com only for those certain accounts by setting the properties on the mailbox to forward to mail2... (this is working) I can now receive mail for the 20 or so mailboxes. When I try to send mail however I get an error message from "mail2" saying the user account does not exist on this server. It doesn't so how can I forward mail from mail2 to mail in the same domain space, mail2 thinks it is the server to handle the request.? Also The "mail" server is hosted elsewhere, not in my DMZ. DNS works though as both servers see each other and route accordingly.
Thanks
