Azure VM not receiving SMTP from Internet

Question

My New Azure Windows Server 2012 R2 is not receiving emails to C:\inetpub\Mailroot\Drop\ from Internet that need to be read from mail drop folder by my ASP.NET app.

My Email Domain provider is Yahoo. I changed Yahoo email MX and A Record to my VM Public virtual IP (VIP) address. I send an email to my domain. The email does not show up in incoming SNMP folder: C:\inetpub\mailroot\Drop\

This has worked on my previous Windows Server 2008 R2 box at my home. Now I'm trying to migrate to Azure.

Answer 1

Have you checked your firewalls both on the virtual machine an on azure to allow port 25.

Answer 2

Add endpoint: DASHBOARD > > ENDPOINTS menu > ADD > NAME: SMTP

Start SMTP: Start button > Admin Tools > IIS6 > right-click SMTP Virtual Server > START

Receive email in: "C:\inetpub\Mailroot\Queue"
