    CF will need email server defined in CFadmin and be able to verify connection:

    Exchange server will need port 25 open (firewall) to CF and may need authentication as well as relay rules allowed.

    HTH, Carl.

    Whenever I setup a new CF server, and do the mail setup as shown above, I also need to tell the group that admin's the Exchange server what the name/IP of my new server is, so that they can allow it to relay to their SMTP server.  If I don't do that, everything looks OK in CF when I send mail, but it doesn't go through.  I think they have separate relaying rules for internal SMTP traffic and external traffic.
