The EnableAuthGSSAPI parameter specifies the advertisement of the Generic Security Services application programming interface (GSSAPI) authentication method, when Integrated Windows authentication is enabled on this connector. If the AuthMechanism parameter contains Integrated, and the EnableAuthGSSAPI parameter is set to $true, the AUTH GSSAPI NTLM keyword is advertised in the EHLO response of the Receive connector. Clients may use Kerberos or NTLM to authenticate with the Receive connector. If the AuthMechanism parameter contains Integrated, and the EnableAuthGSSAPI parameter is set to $false, the AUTH NTLM keyword is advertised in the EHLO response of the Receive connector. Clients may use only NTLM to authenticate with the Receive connector.

If you have Internet Information Services (IIS) messaging servers that authenticate with this Receive connector, you should set the value of the EnableAuthGSSAPI parameter to $false. Authentication with computers running Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 aren't affected by the value of the EnableAuthGSSAPI parameter. Exchange 2003 servers use the authentication methods advertised in the X-EXPS keyword. The X-EXPS keyword is advertised in the EHLO response of the Receive connector when the AuthMechanism parameter contains ExchangeServer.

The valid values for this parameter is $true or $false. The default value is $false. By default, the EnableAuthGSSAPI parameter is set to $true only on the default Receive connector Client <Server Name> created only in the Transport service on a Mailbox server.

• In the EHLO/HELO response of the Receive connector
  
  
• In the most recent Received header field in the incoming message when the message enters the Transport service of a Mailbox server or an Edge server
  
  
• During TLS authentication
  
  

The default value of the Fqdn parameter is the FQDN of the Mailbox server or Edge server that contains the Receive connector.

Note:
Don't modify the FQDN value on the default Receive connector Default <Server Name> that's automatically created in the Transport service of a Mailbox server. If you have multiple Mailbox servers in your Exchange organization and you change the FQDN value on the Default <Server Name> Receive connector, internal mail flow between Mailbox servers will fail.

LiveCredentialEnabled

Optional

System.Boolean

Reserved for internal Microsoft use.

LongAddressesEnabled

Optional

System.Boolean

The LongAddressesEnabled parameter specifies whether the Receive connector accepts long X.400 email addresses. The X.400 email addresses are encapsulated in SMTP email addresses by using the Internet Mail Connector Encapsulated Address (IMCEA) encapsulation method.

When the value of this parameter is $false, the maximum length for a complete SMTP email address is 571 characters.

When the value of this parameter is $true, the following changes are made:

• The XLONGADDR keyword is advertised in the EHLO response of the Receive connector.
  
  
• The accepted line length of an SMTP session is increased to 8,000 characters.
  
  
• Valid long addresses are accepted by the MAIL FROM and RCPT TO SMTP commands.
  
  

Therefore, X.400 email addresses can be up to 1,860 characters long after IMCEA encapsulation.

The valid values for this parameter are $true or $false. The default value is $false. You can modify this parameter only on Receive connectors configured in the Transport service on a Mailbox server.

When the SizeEnabled parameter is set to Enabled, the SIZE SMTP extension is enabled, and the maximum allowed message size value from the MaxMessageSize parameter is advertised in the EHLO banner. When the SizeEnabled parameter is set to Disabled, the SIZE SMTP extension isn't used, and the maximum allowed message size value is never disclosed to the remote server. When the SizeEnabled parameter is set to EnabledWithoutValue, the SIZE SMTP extension is enabled. However, the maximum allowed message size value from the MaxMessageSize parameter isn't advertised in the EHLO banner. This allows the message to bypass message size checks for authenticated connections between Mailbox servers. The SIZE SMTP extension is defined in RFC 1870. The SIZE SMTP extension enables the source server to declare the size of the inbound message to the target server. It also allows the target server to declare the maximum message size that it's allowed to accept to the sending server. If the advertised size of the inbound message exceeds the value in the MaxMessageSize parameter, the Receive connector responds to the remote server by using an error code and closes the connection.

SuppressXAnonymousTls

System.Boolean

The SuppressXAnonymousTls parameter specifies whether this Receive connector supports the standard TLS encryption for incoming connections. By default, all communications between servers is protected with TLS. However, if you need to disable TLS on a specific connection in your organization, you can create a specific Receive connector and set the SuppressXAnonymousTls parameter to $true. The default value is $false.

Before you can set this parameter to $true, you must use the Set-TransportService cmdlet to set the UseDownGradedExchangeServerAuth parameter to $true on the server this Receive connector is configured.

TarpitInterval

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.EnhancedTimeSpan

The TarpitInterval parameter specifies the amount of time to delay an SMTP response to a remote server that may be abusing the connection. Authenticated connections are never delayed in this manner. The default value is 5 seconds.

To specify a value, enter it as a time span: dd.hh:mm:ss where d = days, h = hours, m = minutes, and s = seconds.

The valid input range for this parameter is from 00:00:00 through 00:10:00. When you set the value to 00:00:00, you disable the tarpit interval.

TlsCertificateName

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.SmtpX509Identifier

The TlsCertificateName parameter specifies the local Certificate Authority (CA) issued certificate to use for secure mail. It helps minimize the risk of fraudulent certificates. The Issuer portion of the TlsCertificateName value is derived from the certificate Issuer field and the Subject portion of the TlsCertificateName value is derived from the certificate Common Name field. For example, “X509:<I>Issuer<S>Common Name”.

TlsDomainCapabilities

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.MultiValuedProperty

The TlsDomainCapabilities parameter specifies the capabilities this Receive connector will make available to specific hosts outside your organization. TLS with certificate validation is used to authenticate remote hosts before these capabilities are offered.

To specify capabilities for a domain, use the following syntax:

<domain name 1>:<capability 1, capability 2,…,capability N>

If you're specifying capabilities for multiple domains, list the configuration for each domain in quotation marks ("), separated by commas. For example:

"contoso.com:AcceptOorgProtocol","fabrikam.com:AcceptOorgProtocol,AcceptOorgHeader"

You can configure the capabilities for non-TLS encrypted incoming connections using the special "NO-TLS" domain.

You can configure the following capabilities for a domain:

• AcceptOorgProtocol
  
  
• AcceptOorgHeader
  
  

TransportRole

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.SystemConfiguration.ServerRole

The TransportRole parameter designates the server role associated with this connector. Types include FrontendTransport and HubTransport. Typically used to specify the server role when you host multiple server roles on a single computer.

WhatIf

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The WhatIf switch instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf switch, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf switch.
