Assuming you have scanning and whatnot running on the backup machine (otherwise you are opening a bad path), you can have the backup machine deliver directly to your MTA behind amavis and just save the resources. I may be making assumptions. I use postfix; so in a postfix config amavisd is a standalone on some port (10024) and postfix runs a "return path" smtp daemon running on another arbitrary port (10025). Normally this is all done on the same machine so these ports are only available on via 127.0.0.1; however, I have my backup smtp servers' copy of amavis configured to deliver to the "return path" port on the main server. This way; the amavis on the main server is skipped. The firewall on the main server is configured to only allow the backup machine access to the return port. I don't know if this is a common approach for non-postfix MTA [sorry]. > Thanks in advance, > > Ignacio > - -- Eric W.
