Sending MSMQ Mail Messages to an Exchange User

MSMQ mail messages sent to Exchange users are sent to the server input queue of the Exchange Connector. MSMQ mail messages are then routed through the Exchange Connector where they are translated and sent on to the Exchange Server where they are distributed to the appropriate Exchange user (see illustration below).

When an MSMQ message is sent to an Exchange user, the Exchange Connector performs the following functions:

• Creates a server input queue. This queue is created only once by the Exchange Connector. The Exchange Server input queue is not used when sending information in the other direction (when an Exchange user sends e-mail to an MSMQ application).
• Translates the mail message into e-mail.
• Sends the e-mail on to the Exchange Server.

The MSMQ application must know the address of the Exchange user it is sending messages to.

Additional information can be found in the following:

• To see how mail is sent to MSMQ applications, see Sending E-mail to an MSMQ Application.
