Hi ,

I'm decommissioning the Exchange 2010 server. But will this remove the Exchange 2016 send connectors

that has created automatically when adding the Server?

I just try to disable the send connector in Exchange 2010 and noticed that it disabled the Exchange 2016 server too,

I need these connectors for SMTP Relay?

    Send Connectors are org wide, so if they are still needed, do not remove them
    Instead remove the Exchange 2010 as a source server in that send connector and that will let you decommission the 2010 server

    Go to the properties of that send connector and remove just the 2010 server as a source server in EMC.
