hi,
continuing my exchange 2010 study and lab, i have another question
assume we want some people not to receive emails from outside,
so we go to hub transport servers and create a rule :
these people (AD Security group) cannot receive emails from outside organization and return them the message "hey you cannot"
and we have edge server in the organization.
some times passes and edgesync is done ! and the rule works and as far as i remember, when somebody sends email to those people, they will get that message
so it seems that it is the hub not the edge blocking them
here is my question ?
1-how it is done ? does edge receives all emails, forward them and then the hub blocks them ?
2-if so, two question :
2-1: so what does really edge is doing here ? just relaying the messages to hub ?
2-2: i did not find AD objects on edge (which is normal, cause it is not joined to domain) but can we manage edge to do that filtering ?
