Set the B send connector address space to * and disable send connector A. That will work unless you changed something else.

Hi ,
We've multiple exchange 2010 and exchange 2016 and running on coexistence mode.
A send connector with domain * and source server 2010.
B Send connector with domain gmail.com and source server 2016.
Mailbox on exchange 2010 will go to exchange 2010 A Send Connector.
Mailbox on exchange 2016 except gmail.com go to exchange 2010 A Send Connector.
After disable A Send Connector, Mailbox on exchange 2010 will receive bounce back.#554 5.4.12 SMTP; Hop count exceeded - possible mail loop detected , it can't route to exchange 2016 B Send connector.
Can we route all the mail traffic to Exchange 2016 B Send connector?
Thanks.

2021-03-29T14:38:10.22+00:00 Hi @Anonymous
I send to gmail or outlook.com.
Does it relate to cost? exchange 2010 is * and cost 1 and exchange 2016 is * cost 10.
But I was disable exchange 2010 rule, it shouldn't relate to cost?Thanks.

Cost is not relevant here. -

No, as you said, you have only two send connectors right?
Then after you disabled one, it will use the another one to route emails whatever the cost is. Even though Exchange has a default invisible send connector which has the lowest priority.And like Andy said, you could run the cmdlet in EMS and post the result(covering your personal information) so we could do a better research.
Regards,
Lou
