Hi everyone,
Let's say if the company has 100 users and decides to use Exchange 2013 for 25 (top mgmt) users and place the rest of 75 users in Zimbra. All users share the same <name>@domain.comaddress. Exchange 2013 will be internet facing.
What I thought to accomplish this was to place Exchange behind internet. Then add a 'send connector' to route the inbound mails form internet for the 75 users who's got their mailboxes on Zimbra. And Zimbra will check his side and drop the mail if mailbox not found.
And when it comes to Zimbra user sending an email, I thought of adding a receive connector from Zimbra and if the mailbox is on the Exchange side, accept it or else, route it to internet.
1) Would this work, or any other approaches?
2) How should i implement the Send/Receive Connectors.
