New page

To flesh things out a little more here, you can use RT with Exchange 2007 (Could work with later versions but I have not looked into this) by the below method assuming you have installed a mail server on your RT instance and configured an alias to pipe mail to rt-mailgate.

1) Setup a new Send Connector (Tells Exchange how to connect to your RT Server)

You can do this by going to Organization Configuration>Hub Transport>Add new Send Connector in the Exchange Management Console

From there basically follow the wizard.

#In the first screen just give an appropriate name for it e.g RT.

#The next Page sets the Address Space. The Address Space should be the FQDN of the server e.g rtserver.domain.com.
#On this page of the wizard "Network Settings" select "Route mail through the following smart hosts" click add and add your RT server as the smart host with its FQDN.
#I selected none for my smarthost authentication settings as the RT server only receives mail from our exchange server.
#Click add on the Source Server window and select your Exchange Hub Transport to be used with this connector,
#The wizard is now finished and the Send Connector is complete.
=====2) Create a new "Mail Ccontact in Exchange. Nothing special here, just enter the details as you wish it to appear in the Directory and for the External Email Address put this as {alias}@rtserver.domain.com where alias is the address you have setup on the RT side and rtserver.domain.com is the server's FQDN as specified in the setup of the Send Connector.=====

Now you should be able to send mail to the RT contact you just created and receive the auto-reply. :)

Note: If you are getting attachments in RT as Winmail.dat then open the Mail Contact and on the General tab change the setting "Use MAPI Rich Text Format" to Never.
