    Hello,

    I'm looking for a procedure to setup TLS between Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2007 servers (between 2 different organization) . Can someone help?

    Hi RKART

    This should help you  Configure mutual Transport Layer Security (TLS)

    You shouldn't have to do anything --both versions of Exchange offer
    TLS and they'll both use it when they send e-mail to a MTA if STARTTLS
    is seen in the response to the EHLO they send.

    Hello Karthik,

    In Exchange 2007, it has Mutual TLS and Opportunistic TLS.

    With Opportunistic TLS, Exchange Server 2007 tries to secure the message flow with other Exchange Servers or foreign messaging systems. it also tries to enable a TLS session with the other messaging system in the form of an anonymous TLS request.

    So you no need to do anything, if you need both Exchange Servers that are involved in the message transport process will check the TLS certificate before the connection is established, you can follow fred's suggestion to enable Mutul TLS, this way the sender and receiver will authenticate one another before they send the data.

    Thanks,

    Evan Liu
