And you say - Exchange ... :)

frontbridge.com is a domain owned by Microsoft. Judging by the name - something like a "bridge", "first bastion".

Of course, there is nothing difficult in setting up relay to postfix, and the real (but shadow) server will be anything. The question is different - on the front of email, Microsoft doesn’t have Exchange at all, but Postfix, and not Windows at all (since Postfix is ​​not ported to it).
