Christopher,
Thank you for replying. As I said in my earlier post that we use outside
hosted exchange and the email works going out of that server to anyother
address except the address that matches our domain name. I am running my
webserver as a smtp server. I have one default virtual smtp server running
under IIS and nothing special on the relay on that server. Just the default
check boxes.. Like I said, our domain is xyz.local and the problem is only
with users with xyz.com not anyother domain. So I was thinking if there is
any alias issue or for some reason the webserver is confused with the domain
name?? By the way, The webserver is connected to the domain so it is one of
the member server on the local domain running AD.. Don't ask me why this is
the configuration we chose? It is above my head.. Again thanks for replying..

Thanks.. Got the problem fixed. All I had to do was add the mx record for the
exchange server to the smarthost on the webserver.
