To configure incoming e-mail in an advanced scenario
1. Verify that you have the following administrative credentials:
– You must be a member of the Administrators group on the computer that is running the SharePoint Central Administration Web site.
2. In Central Administration, click System Settings.
3. On the System Settings page, in the E-Mail and Text Messages (SMS) section, click Configure incoming e-mail settings.
4. If you want to enable sites on this server to receive e-mail, on the Configure Incoming E-mail Settings page, in the Enable Incoming E-Mail section, click Yes.
5. Select the Advanced settings mode.
If you select Advanced, you can specify a drop folder instead of using an SMTP server.
6. If you want to connect to Directory Management Service, in the Directory Management Service section, click Yes.If you select this option, you must first configure Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). If you use Exchange Server, you must also configure the DNS Manager and add an SMTP connector. For more information, see the “Configure AD DS to be used with Directory Management Service”, “Configure DNS Manager”, and “Add an SMTP connector in Exchange Server 2010” sections later in this article.
a. In the Active Directory container where new distribution groups and contacts will be created box, type the name of the container in the format OU=ContainerName, DC=domain, DC=com, where ContainerName is the name of the OU in AD DS, domain is the second-level domain, and com is the top-level domain.
b. In the SMTP mail server for incoming mail box, type the name of the SMTP mail server. The server name must match the FQDN in the A resource record entry for the mail server in DNS Manager.
c. To accept only messages from authenticated users, click Yes for Accept messages from authenticated users only. Otherwise, click No.
d. To enable users to create distribution groups from SharePoint sites, click Yes for Allow creation of distribution groups from SharePoint sites. Otherwise, click No.
e. Under Distribution group request approval settings, select the actions that will require approval. Actions include the following:
– Create new distribution group
– Change distribution group e-mail address
– Change distribution group title and description
– Delete distribution group
7. If you want to use a remote Directory Management Service, select Use remote. If you select this option and you are using Exchange Server, you must configure the DNS Manager and add an SMTP connector. For more information, see the “Configure DNS Manager” and “Add an SMTP connector in Exchange Server 2010” sections later in this article. The AD DS has most likely already been configured, so you do not need to do this.
a. In the Directory Management Service URL box, type the URL of the Directory Management Service that you want to use. The URL is typically in the following format: http://server:adminport/_vti_bin/SharePointEmailWS.asmx.
b. In the SMTP mail server for incoming mail box, type the name of the SMTP mail server. The server name must match the FQDN in the A resource record entry for the mail server in DNS Manager on the domain server.
c. To accept messages from authenticated users only, click Yes for Accept messages from authenticated users only. Otherwise, click No.
d. To allow creation of distribution groups from SharePoint sites, click Yes for Allow creation of distribution groups from SharePoint sites. Otherwise, click No.
8. If you do not want to use Directory Management Service, click No.
9. In the Incoming E-Mail Server Display Address section, in the E-mail server display address box, type a display name for the e-mail server (for example, mail.fabrikam.com). You typically use this option together with the Directory Management Service.
10. In the E-Mail Drop Folder section, in the E-mail drop folder box, type the name of the folder from which SharePoint 2010 Timer service retrieves incoming e-mail from the SMTP service. If you select this option, ensure that you configure the necessary permissions to the e-mail drop folder. For more information, see the “Configure permissions to the e-mail drop folder” section later in this article.
It is useful to have a dedicated e-mail drop folder if the default e-mail drop folder is full or almost full.
Ensure that the logon account for the SharePoint 2010 Timer service has Modify permissions on the e-mail drop folder. For more information, see “To configure e-mail drop folder permissions for the logon account for the SharePoint 2010 Timer service” procedure later in this article.
11. In the Safe E-Mail Servers section, select whether you want to accept e-mail from all e-mail servers or from several specified e-mail servers
