How to Remove a Send Connector

Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 will reach end of support on April 11, 2017. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2007, Exchange Server 2007 SP1, Exchange Server 2007 SP2, Exchange Server 2007 SP3

This topic explains how to use the Exchange Management Console or the Exchange Management Shell to remove an existing Send connector in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.

In Exchange 2007, you use Send connectors to create a connection to the Internet and to remote e-mail systems that require a specific configuration. For example, some remote e-mail systems may use a smart host or may require that you send e-mail messages that are larger than your standard Exchange organization limit.

Before You Begin

To perform the following procedures, the account you use must be delegated the following:

  • Exchange Organization Administrator role

To perform the following procedures on a computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed, you must log on by using an account that is a member of the local Administrators group on that computer.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.

Note

Do not perform this procedure on an Edge Transport server that is subscribed to the Exchange organization by using the Edge Subscription process. Instead, remove the Send connector on the Hub Transport server. The change will be replicated to the Edge Transport server when synchronization next occurs.

Warning

Although a Send connector is configured on a local Hub Transport server or an Edge Transport server, deleting a Send connector may affect mail flow throughout the organization
