it is expected behavior, because you are using the exchange server for the email which dont have any SharePoint component installed on it.

When you configured the outgoing email settings and put the exchange url in the outgoing email server field, SharePoint system setting pick this as a server but as no SharePoint component and No permission for the Farm admin account so you will see Not configured. enter image description here

So ignore it, Most important thing, make sure your Alerts and other emails are working.

Make sure that you have configured the Send and Receiver Connectors on your Exchange server as the following:

  • Type the name of the Send Connector. Select the intended use for it. as Internal.Then click on Next.

  • Add new SMTP Address Space.

  • Type the FQDN of the SharePoint Server . Click on OK.

  • Click on Next after the Address space is added.

  • In the Network settings. Click on Add, to add a Smart Host with Server IP or by FQDN.

  • Click on OK and then Next.
  • In the authentication settings select None and click on Next.
  • It will now show the summary. Click on New and a New Send Connector will get created

For Receive Connector

  • Go to Exchange Management Console on the Exchange Server

  • Expand Microsoft Exchange On-Premises

  • Click on Hub Transport under Server Configuration
