I have Exchange server 2007 running on Windows Server 2003. I have gotten it to send emails to internet addresses, but it does not receive them. I tried to send one from my yahoo address, but i get a mailer-deamon reply with something about client not authenticated. Please help me configure my server. Thanks.

The ports are def open, ping, telnet, etc work. I think it has to do with an option somewhere that I am supposed to set an option to anonymous. I just cant remember where.

Assuming you did the installation correctly, I doubt it's an Exchange issue. I'd first check the firewall to make sure ports 110 and 25 are open; both on the server and router. That's the most common problem. I'd also check to make sure your MX records are properly registered in DNS. Try pinging your mail server by IP address and then by name (mail.xxx.com, or whatever you've named it). If it passes ping by IP, but not name, it's a DNS issue. If you just set this up, it could take a few days for DNS to propagate through the internet. Sometimes you just have to wait.

Do you have an MX (mail exchange) record pointing to your mail server?
Go to the place / site you purchased your domain name, look for dns options and create an mx record with the ip address of your mail server!
Your mail server has to be pingable (not blocked by firewalls or ports open so mail can get through (25, 110 ......))
Now try!
