Although you told your exchange server to accept emails from the Alfresco server, it looks like the handoff is not working.

On the command line on the Alfresco server, try:

$ telnet 172.18.168.3 25‍

If you get something like:

Connected to localhost.localdomain (172.18.168.3).
Escape character is '^]'.
220 172.18.168.3 ESMTP Sendmail 8.13.8/8.13.8; Fri, 27 May 2011 16:29:47 -0400‍‍‍

Then you have some other issue - not sure what.

If you get something like a timeout error, though, then your Alfresco server cannot communicate on port 25 to your exchange server. Check the exchange server logs and see if you see the connections from the Alfresco server. Maybe the server is being denied because you used a host alias, but the host is identifying itself with another name, or you used the hostname when you need to use the IP. (I don't know anything about Exchange.)

If you don't see any denials of the Alfresco server in the Exchange logs…
- You might need to change the firewall settings on your exchange server - maybe you need to add the Alfresco server there too.
- You might need to change firewall settings elsewhere on your network.
