No entiendo lo que necesitas... Quieres mandar correo de tu servidor HP-UX a el servidor de exchange? o quieres poder leer correos desde la maquina HP-UX pero los correos estan en el servidor exchange?

How do you configure sendmail if you have exchange running on NT as your mail server?

The exchange server must be running the SMTP
service to be able to communicate.

Set the exchange server as the mail server in
the SMTP server set-up. Mail will then forward
to the exchange server.

Usually alias Unix users to their Exchange SMTP
address.

Hello,

I'm St?phane and I'm very interested to this subject too.

Could you be more precise in making alias for the Exchange user !?

You setup aliases in the file /etc/aliases.
The relevant lines in the file are in the format

userid: user@msexchange.server

For example:

bill: Bill.Thorsteinson@nowhere.com

Whenever you update the aliases file be sure
to run the 'newaliases' command to rebuild the
database used by sendmail.

I have been following this because I, too, am attempting the same thing. After much experimentation and many attempts (all of which failed) I finally tried to send mail from one unix server to the other (both HP-UX 11.0). That attempt also failed.

I believed I followed all the directions described in this thread and those past threads that were referenced. It seems my sendmail is simply not transmitting outside of its own server.

The return messages I get indicate a "server timeout" and that it will keep trying for 5 days.

Help!!!

HPBOX# echo test | mailx -m -s "testing" MSEXCHANGEUSER@[MSEXCHANGEBOX]

no need to mess with the default sendmail configuration on the HPBOX, but may need to tweak the MSEXCHANGEBOX

Set your DS macro to point to your MSEX server in sendmail.cf. then restart sendmail.
