Hi.
By default, Exchange 2007 does not allow unauthenticated SMTP emails.
 
You need to configure your receive connector (or create a receive connector for this purpose) and add the Linux server's IP to the list of servers allowed.
Then configure anonymous permissions to this connector.

have you added the ip of the Linux box to be one of the relay servers?

Have you authenticated the Linux server? i.e. user name and password

from the linux server can you run smtp commands to the exchange server?

Hi Guys,
Our linux(postfix) server has been sending emails using exchange 2003 as the relay, but since we upgraded to exchange 2007 it cannot send external emails anymore, the linux server has already been added as a relay in exchange, has anybody ever faced this challenge.

Hi Felix,

I see no reason at all for this to happen, if other clients on your network can send outbound e-mails via your Exchange 2007.
Anyway, you need to adjust the logging level for your SMTP service upwards and see why it's happening.

PS: It's always wise to accompany such questions with output from your logs to enable people make informed opinions, not guesses.
