Hello,

I have a certain few users that we do not want sending out email messages to external email accounts. We want them to be able to send within the domain and receive email from anyone inside or outside the domain, but not to be able to send to anyone outside the domain.
I thought I could do this with a SMTP connector in properties->delivery restrictions and adding them to the reject messages from list, but doesnt seem to be working
 
Hi

I'm struggling with this too. Im an admin in a callcentre where users need internal but not external mail. Where in exchange 2000 can I stop them from sending or receiving external mail?

cheers

Aaron
 
Just found this - I havent tried it yet, but seems sound. I'll post up the results next week.

-----------------------------------

A: Follow the steps outlined below:

Create a group called InternalOnly.

Create a recipient policy that gives them a fake SMTP address. i.e. @fake.domain. Leave the X400 address alone so they can receive internal mail.

Drill down through Routing Groups > Group Name > Connectors > SMTP internet connector(s), choose its properties. Choose the Delivery Restrictions tab, and under "reject", add this group. Do this for each connector.

Follow the steps in Q277872, regarding Connector Restrictions.
[Now they can't use the SMTP connector(s) to send external mail]
