Re: [courier-users] sending mail to MS exchange server� (Derrick T. 
Woolworth, �Sun Feb 1 22:51:40 2004)
 
Kevin,

I didn't see if anyone had responded to you on the list, so although this is 
a 
bit late, I'd rather make sure you have an answer. �Courier is a good mail 
system - rivaling exchange with less resource requirements and more 
configurability, in my opinion.

Nevertheless, if you need mail to go to Courier first and then to your 
Exchange 
server, you need to use Courier as a mail router. �To do this you add the 
domain to the esmtpacceptmailfor.dir/esmtpacceptmailfor file. �Then add the 
domain to the esmtproutes file like:

domain.com: [exchange ip] or
domain.com: exchange.domain.com

Where "domain.com" is mapped to the Courier machine and the IP address 
enclosed 
in [] square brackets or just the exchange.domain.com maps to the MS Exchange 
machine.

Point the MX record for domain.com at the Courier machine and make sure your 
Exchange box is configured so it will receive mail for the domain.

Courier routes "all" mail for that domain to the exchange box. �This is 
really 
useful when you have mail filters running on Courier (stuff like virus 
checkers 
or spam catchers).

After installing Courier, you can use "man esmtproutes" or just "man courier" 
for more info.

Thanks,

D
