This is a little out of date for 3.2 but gives more information about configuring email. You should set the properties in alfresco's global properties rather than repository.properties.

I followed the direction in the link you game me and made the changes to the global properties. However this did not get e-mail working for. When I send an invit to join a group I recieve a message that says sending the email was successful but as far as I can tell no mail every gets relayed through my exchange server.

Any other "how to" available for setting up e-mail?

Thanks for any help.
