Mail routing btween Source and Target

Good Morning,

I have a question regarding mail routing between Source and Target domains.

I'd like to know how the mail flow works after additional addresses (source.local and target.local) are set up.

Does Qmm proxy mail between domains or the flow it's done between the Exchange environments with no qmmex working in the middle of the mail routing?

Basically is it SOURCE <--> TARGET or SOURCE <--QMMEX--> TARGET

Thank you

QMM does not handle the routing - you have to setup your Connectors in Exchange to support the routing of these namespaces.

I have needed connectors in place. I need to understand the mail flow since I have the source Exchange located a different geo location than my target Exchange. The existing mail flow is very slow. I was wondering is setting up an additional target server and creating a new dag (target Exchange) in the same city the the source is could fix my slowness issues.

If the mail routing is not done thru my qmm that means the above idea could work.

All into MBX without archiving prior? The Agent Host server specs? Is the local AV scanning the Agents?, if so exclude them

Also you have Riverbed in place, between both places? We had a problem with them caused issues with the Sync, to fix we made the traffic go through unimpeded. (Src > Trg)

There is no archiving approved, AV is there but there are exclusions in place. AV specs: win 2012 r2, RAM 8GB, 4 cores, cpu utilization ~30%

win 2012 r2, RAM 8GB, 4 cores, cpu utilization -30% = Agent Host Server?

Also find out concerning the Riverbeds

correct. The problem is the traffic routing. I thought that adding a target EX node in VAN could have resolved the problem

Well, it depends on mailbox size. 12gb / 50k items it takes a day, maybe less than that

Personally 1GB hr sounds about right. 24hrs = 24GB. So, collection A, using Agent (2MBX)=12GB perday, collection B, using Agent(1) (2MBX)=12GB perday. Have you tried to put only 1 MBX in a collection, and see what it gives you after 24hrs? If I'm wrong someone else chime in and correct me please.
