We are helping out a consultant that is working with a new client that had a previous IT company drop a $15K box down and configure it with ADDS and Exchange … sorta.

No send connector.
So, we went through and created a new Send Connector:
Gave it a name:

The overview for the New Connector:
Once the send connector was created, e-mail started to flow as expected.
The box is running Windows Server 2008 with Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, File Services, and Exchange 2007.
