You tell them to do like this. In the IIS SMTP properties, you put in your

Exhange server IP-adress, and then the support guys has to permit SMTP from

your WEBserver in the DMZ to the Exhange server inside the firewall.. Very

simple.. :)

Can you expand on this?  Exactly what should I be telling the support guys

to do?



We have an Exchange server inside the firewall which sends messages to the

outside world, presumably through some kind of gateway in the DMZ. The web

server resides in the DMZ.  Can the SMTP service of the web server send

messages directly to the mail gateway, or do the messages have to come back

though the firewall to the exchange server?



(As a developer I expect this stuff to just work, but when the support guys

don't know how to fix it, what else can I do except try to find out for

myself?)

Yes, you have to permit SMTP (port 25) truogh the firewall (DMZ) , and if

you have put in a smarthost you has to permit SMTP to that server from the

DMZ!
