Is there a way to configure Exchange 2000 to use Anonymous Access from a particular IP address on the SMPT connector? Is it a good idea as far a security goes to disable Anon Access on this connector? Thanks.

to allow a particular IP address to use the smtp connector without authenticating in exchange 2000. Go to the exchange system manager, find the default virtual smtp server, properties, access tab, connections button, click the add button to add theIP of the machine. you may need to stop and restart the simple mail tranfer protocol service on the server.

its better to set your outlook/express to authenticate when sending email. But I don't know what mail client you are using.
