No, it isn't possible (not as you described it), and yes, that would create a mail loop, the config is the following user -> mailserver -> ASSP -> MTA (smarthost) -> internet for example you may have (say) a Lotus Domino as your mailserver and a sendmail sitting on the ASSP box used as the MTA (smarthost) the latter will receive the messages from ASSP and perform the needed outgoing mail routing by the way, nothing forbids you (assumed you did setup things properly) to use the setup for inbound routing too, in this case you'd have internet -> ASSP -> MTA -> mailserver that is, ASSP would send incoming messages to the local MTA (sendmail in the above example) which in turn would then route them to the backend mailserver (Lotus in the example) the advantage of such a setup is that, in case the backend mailserver is unreachable, the local MTA will enqueue messages and retry sending them so the incoming messages won't be lost ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
