How can I find SMTP address in AD

Active Directory uses SMTP or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol for sending data. This is the server used for sending when setting up email account using email client such as Outlook Express or Microsoft Outlook.

Most SMTP server settings is personalized by Internet Service Provider. There are no such SMTP that can be used in general. For RoadRunner Internet, on every division, it has there own SMTP to used.

For Verizon Internet, they uses outgoing.verizon.net as SMTP. You need to contact your Internet Service Provider and ask this information to them. This is important if you are setting out email account or an active directory.

To find within an AD console, you can do as in the screenshot. If you have an Exchange server check the SMTP from the EMC console.
