SMTP Proxy Is it working?

Cambrian
Hi,

How can I tell if the SMTP proxy is successfully forwarding mail to our exchange server. (ASG 6.302 - Exchange 2003 SP2 on SBS 2003 SP1)

Looking at the logs i can see all the traffic from out hosting provider being allowed through.  When looking at the SMTP logs I have this in the live log:

2006:09:14-11:35:19 (none) exim[7453]: 2006-09-14 11:35:19 1GNoYw-0001wC-5p Completed
2006:09:14-11:45:56 (none) exim[7660]: 2006-09-14 11:45:56 no host name found for IP address 82.133.20.98
2006:09:14-11:49:12 (none) exim[7705]: 2006-09-14 11:49:12 Start queue run: pid=7705
2006:09:14-11:49:12 (none) exim[7705]: 2006-09-14 11:49:12 End queue run: pid=7705

Nothing is actually getting to the exchange server though.

Can someone point me in the right direction as to what i am looking for to tell me that the SMTP traffic is getting through to the exchange?  At least then I will know if it is a problem with the exhcange and not the firewall.

Thanks

    Have you upgraded to 6.303? If so you will need to reboot and force an up2date on the virus/spam/ids section. Be very careful, I lost all my databases and thought I had destroyed the firewall and was looking at a re-build until I found out about the missing files.
    All proxies, pop3, smtp, http, DNS all played up because they can't handle null reference files.
    Also some of my log files appear to have gone missing according to the "reports" stats.

    Often times user leave their nat rule enabled. You have to remove this inorder for the proxy to grab the email.
