SUMMARY
=======

This article describes how to connect the Microsoft Mail Connector to a
Microsoft Mail for PC Networks postoffice in an untrusted Microsoft Windows NT
domain.

MORE INFORMATION
================

There are two ways to facilitate the operation of a Microsoft Mail Connector
(PC) message transfer agent (MTA) service account with a Microsoft Mail for PC
Networks postoffice in an untrusted Windows NT domain:

Method 1
--------

1. On the Exchange Server computer where the Microsoft Mail Connector (PC) MTA
  is installed, in Control Panel, double-click Services, and then click to
  select the Microsoft Mail Connector (PC) MTA service.

2. Click Startup, and then click to select a Windows NT account that is common
  to both Windows NT domains and has the same user name and password.

3. Make sure that the Microsoft Mail Connector (PC) MTA service account has the
  advanced user right to "Log on as a service".

Method 2
--------

1. Create a new Microsoft Mail Connector (PC) MTA that uses a service account
  that is local to the untrusted Windows NT domain.

2. In Control Panel, double-click the Services of the new Microsoft Mail
  Connector (PC) MTA, and then configure the Startup properties to use an
  account in the untrusted Windows NT domain.

3. Make sure the account in the untrusted domain also has "Log on as a service"
  rights.

To create a common account to use as the service account, on the computer where
the Microsoft Mail for PC Networks postoffice resides, in the User Manager for
Domains, click Account. In the Account Type box, click "Local Account for users
from untrusted domains".
