My exposure to ES2k is minimal and I need some guidance. The ES has been the primary Internet and internal email for years in a very small company. The server is ageing and at risk. We wish to use hosted email now because of great virus and spam filtering and global access. The desire is to retain the ES for internal email only for scheduling only and remove the exposure on ports 110 & 25. This leads to to my first question:
What is the best way to make Exchange 2000 Internal use only (no SMTP or POP3 or MX) for all clients?
Related to this is another situation. When an external email address is added to a MS Outlook profile and set as default email account and an MS Exchange Client is there, all outbound email gets routed through the Exchange Client and ends up going no where, so:
How do you force outbound emails through a separate Internet email account when an MS Exchange Client is in the profile?
The volume of the data in the mailboxes is huge and must be preserved, so working with it scares the hell out of me. I will be forever grateful for low-risk and non-destructive solutions.
