Subject: Exchange 2007 Outbound Port
Rate this article
Unlike Exchange 2003 and below, Exchange 2007 does not use SMTP in traditional way, now they split the functions to 2 parts, so called “Send Connector” and “receive Connector” and like the name implies that is exactly what they do.
Receive Connector is the straight forward, you create a connector, pick the proper port and you are done.
The Send connector however is not the same, they GUI will not allow you to change what port to send outbound messages to, you have to do it from Exchange Management Shell and use the following commands.
To confirm to port in use currently, with the connector you create. (ChangeIP.com is the name of my “Send Connector”)
Get-SendConnector -Identity "ChangeIP.com" | fl
By default, you will notice port 25 for your connector, type the following command to change from port 25 to 5072.
Set-SendConnector -Identity "ChangeIP.com" -port 5072
You will be at the prompt again, type in the first command to verify your changes.
