How to: Enable incoming/outgoing email for SharePoint 2007

This is a first part of a series that I am doing on "Building Document Workflow" in SharePoint/MOSS 2007 that I am producing. You can find the freely downloadable workshops that accompanying these videos on my blog here.

The scenario is a company has created a portal which will accept resume's for job postings, and that via workflow, the MOSS 2007 portal will handle the workflow (automatically and with human interaction where needed) to process the resume's (documents).

This is the first step in the process: Enabling incoming/outgoing email on the portal (9 minutes in length).

You can find the text (with pictures) walkthrough that matches this video here.

You can download the freely available "Building Document Workflow with MOSS" workshops on my blog (www.sheltonblog.com), or directly by clicking here.

If both Exchange 2007 and Sharepoint 2007 are on the same machine how do you enable outgoing mail ?

This tutorial is good but I still didn't understand how to configure exchange because my email doesn't arrive into a library :(

Salsayyed - SMTP uses port 25 end of. If you want to port translate inside your own network thats fine but the rest of the world talks SMTP on port 25.

What a crock. All this does is shows your how to USE the facility absolutely nothing to do with configuring it. Bapenguin 'you solved my problem' How? Obviously a fake comment posted by the author.

This video on Youtube is completely unsuable due to the resolution - I had to download the WMV from the author site.

9 minutes of my life I want back.

Thank you for this great job, but can you tell me how can I change the default SMTP port? I don't want to use 25?
