If I have server SMTP gateway server, how could I tell to postfix to route one message to one of them (eg: suppose that I have 3 smtp gateway, say IP1, IP2, IP3, then how could I tell to postfix that mail received must be rerouted to amavisd-new on one of the machine IP1, IP2 or IP3?)? > With > $forward_method = 'smtp:*:10025'; > in amavisd.conf amavis will forward the scanned message back > to the originating postfix server and you can share several > amavis installations on more than one SMTP gateway making it > possible to use also round robin for your SMTP gateways. My only fear is that a such approach could icrease drastically the DMZ network traffic.. :-( rocsca ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
