Title Description Details
SmartHosts The SmartHosts parameter specifies the smart hosts the Send connector uses to route mail. This parameteris required if you set the DNSRoutingEnabled parameter to $false and it must be specified on the same command line. The SmartHosts parameter takes one or more FQDNs, such as server.contoso.com, or one or more IP addresses, or a combination of both FQDNs and IP addresses. If you enter an IP address, you must enter the IP address as a literal. For example, 10.10.1.1. The smart host identity can be the FQDN of a smart-host server, a mail exchanger (MX) record, or an address (A) record. If you configure an FQDN as the smart host identity, the source server for the Send connector must be able to use DNS name resolution to locate the smart-host server. To enter multiple values and overwrite any existing entries, use the following syntax: <value1>,<value2>.... If the values contain spaces or otherwise require quotation marks, you need to use the following syntax: "<value1>","<value2>".... To add or remove one or more values without affecting any existing entries, use the following syntax: @{Add="<value1>","<value2>"...; Remove="<value1>","<value2>"...}.

AddressSpaces The AddressSpaces parameter specifies the domain names to which the Send connector routes mail. The complete syntax for entering each address space is as follows: <AddressSpaceType>:<AddressSpace>;<AddressSpaceCost> AddressSpaceType: On an Edge server, the address space type must be SMTP. In the Transport service on a Mailbox server, the address space type may be SMTP, X400, or any other text string. If you omit the address space type, SMTP is assumed. AddressSpace: For SMTP address space types, the address space that you enter must be RFC 1035-compliant. For example, *, *.com, and *.contoso.com are permitted, but *contoso.com is not. For X.400 address space types, the address space that you enter must be RFC 1685-compliant, such as o=MySite;p=MyOrg;a=adatum;c=us. For all other values of address space type, you can enter any text for the address space. AddressSpaceCost: The valid input range for the cost is from 1 through 100. A lower cost indicates a better route. This parameter is optional. If you omit the address space cost, a cost of 1 is assumed. If you enter a non-SMTP address space that contains the semicolon character (;), you must specify the address space cost. If you specify the address space type or the address space cost, you must enclose the address space in quotation marks ("). For example, the following address space entries are equivalent: "SMTP:contoso.com;1" "contoso.com;1" "SMTP:contoso.com" contoso.com You may specify multiple address spaces by separating the address spaces with commas, for example: contoso.com,fabrikam.com. If you specify the address space type or the address space cost, enclose the address space in quotation marks ("), for example: "contoso.com;2","fabrikam.com;3". If you specify a non-SMTP address space type on a Send connector configured in the Transport service on a Mailbox server, you must configure the following parameters: The SmartHosts parameter must be set to a value that specifies a smart host. The DNSRoutingEnabled parameter must be set to $false. Although you can configure non-SMTP address spaces on a Send connector in the Transport service on a Mailbox server, the Send connector uses SMTP as the transport mechanism to send messages to other messaging servers. Foreign connectors in the Transport service on a Mailbox server are used to send messages to local messaging servers, such as third-party fax gateway servers, which don't use SMTP as their primary transport mechanism. For more information, see Foreign connectors.
