To test the SMTP connectors:
- Create test mailboxes on the source and target Exchange servers. In this example, both mailboxes will be called mbx1.
- Set the same primary SMTP address for both mailboxes.
- In this example the primary address for both mailboxes will be mbx1@Westland.Exchange.com.
- Set additional addresses for both mailboxes.
- In this example additional address for the source mailbox will be mbx1@source.local, and mbx1@target.local for the target mailbox.
- Create a contact on the source Exchange server and point it to the additional SMTP address of the target Exchange mailbox (mbx1@target.local).
- Create a contact on the target Exchange server and point it to the additional SMTP address of the source mailbox (mbx1@source.local).
- Open the test source mailbox and send a message to the source contact.
- Open the test target mailbox and make sure that the message has arrived.
- From the test target mailbox, send a message to the target contact, and make sure the e-mail has reached the source test mailbox.
