Ah. Well, all the hostnames must be in 'locals', both for primary and secondary roles. And all the domain names must be in 'esmtpacceptmailfor'. The server will compare itself with the MX records. * Where the server finds itself to be the MX at the lowest priority, it will keep the email - you need to have a local account, or perhaps forward it to a private internal mail server using 'smtproutes'. Of course, if you relay the mail using smtproutes, then the destination server will do the user account validation. * Where the server finds itself to be a secondary MX, it will queue the mail for the primary MX. I hope this is what you needed... Patrick. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
