Yeah I thought of that so I just created an internal SMTP server and only allowed outgoing SMTP mail through the firewall. The other IMS server I left unchanged. This should work.

It would go without the brackets as well. His problem is he needs to change the relay settings in IMS to allow relaying. Ed, be careful not to make yourself an open relay if this host is communicating directly to the Internet.

The problem is the message will not be delivered. It appears that the SMTP server will not see the recipient in its local site and then bounce the message back undeliverable. Of course the recipient isn't in the local site because it is an outside email address. Example of what I am doing. Telnet mail.stainsafe.com 25 Mail from:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Rcpt to:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Data Subject: test message This comes back undeliverable almost immediately. It appears to me that the SMTP server is not trying to send the message out, it is looking for the recipient locally and then rejecting it because the recipient doesn't exist. How can I have the SMTP server send the message to the MX server of notmydomain.com? If I am confusing you all I apologize. Thanks for the help.
