We also us Google as a filtering system for are own mail servers. But only for inbound. Heres how we do it.
Background: MX records point to all googles mail server + are mail servers. But on are mail server have all inbound mail blocked (port 25 inbound is closed) on the MX ip address. These server (are mail servers) have 2 ipaddress. On the second IP on that same server we have open port 25. Heres how it all plays out: All mail coming to [email protected] goes though this. [email protected] => [email protected] (gmail server) => cfrank...@ipaddress (in house server). But for all out going mail we still and can do this. [email protected] (in house server) => [email protected] So for us, not only is gmail acting like a big brother filter, but also as a backup for us so we can take down are server, but still have mail "flow" in. This setup allows us to still do are own in house archiving/monitoring. With alot of flexibility. >> >> > It appears that Google Apps does use Postini...I mean why not. >> > Google owns it. >> >> for one, single, simple reason; ASSP may help you protecting >> yourself against OUTBOUND "junk" and you'll be in control of >> it, google won't; > > FYI, You took my statement out of context and turned it around.
