    Andy speaks truth – The article states that port 25 would be used in the “SMTP Relay” method.

    Port 587 is recommended in the “Client SMTP submission” method.

    The question specifies that you are setting up an SMTP Relay

        I not sure, I deployed O365 for exchange online here and I di not remember of creating any rule for smtp on port 587 and everything is working without issue on port 25, but reading the documentation and related to Microsft exams, we must have more care about that.

          Same, I deployed EO for client last month and didnt setup 587….. it seems the documentation conflicts…

          I’m inclinded to go with 587 though because the article http://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn554323.aspx was last updated in July and the article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh852522.aspx was updated this month :/

          Its a tricky one

          Actually just noticed this…. on the article you referenced it states this – Client SMTP Submission Client SMTP submission allows your device or LOB application to send emails using an email address associated with an Office 365 mailbox by authenticating itself using that account. Each device can have their own sender address or all devices can use one address such as printer@yourdomain.com.

          So it must be 587 is correct because thats exactly the requires defined in the question

    I’m going to roll the dice on this and say it’s the following:

    SMTP Relay: 587
    Office 365 Admin: 443
    Lync Outbound Video: 50020-50039
    Lync Outbound Audio: 50000-50019

    The only point of question is the SMTP Relay. In this article that has been posted a couple of times it’s clear that the SMTP Client Submission is the preferred method. What’s challenging about this question is that the SMTP Client Submission method can use the preferred port of 587 or the old standby of 25. Having taken well over 40 Microsoft Exams during my career, they tend to have you use the preferred newer methods over the old tried and true. Just the fact that port 587 is listed leads me to believe that’s the answer. There’s not enough information to tell us whether or not the LOB application will work with the SMTP client submission method, so I’ll assume it does and will pick 587 for better or worse.
