Mail not forwarding after setting external address.

[olib...@gmail.com]

Hey all.

I have this somewhat of a strange error witch i have been dealing with
for a week now. I have two exchange servers, one 2003 one 2007. We are
currently moving all our users to the 2007 server. The difference
between these servers are that the 2003 server is a .is and the other
one is .com.

Whenever i send a mail i.e. from my gmail to @domain.is the mail does
indeed come. When i send to @domain.com the mail arrives to the 2007
mail server. Everything works smooth!

However! When i set an external recipient on the 2003 server to
forward to @domain.com on the 2007 server, or any e-mail address for
that matter, the mail does not forward. I am 100% that i set up the
external recipient correctly because i have done it before.

I have checked if Allow Auto Forward is enabled and it is, yet, the
mail does not forward.

Does anyone have a clue what im talking about? :P
And sorry for my bad english :)

Probably the Exchange 2007 server is not authoritative for the .is email
domain.
It won't accept it.
You can change that with:
new-accepteddomain -name 'domain' -domainname 'domain.is' -domaintype
'non-authoritative'
