I have a network like this:
ISDN line goes into:
199.232.38.1 (ISDN router)
which has a hub plugged into it.
In the hub we have:
199.232.38.2 a Power Computing 604/132 running macDNS for threeofus.com
and Eudora Internet Mail Server (EIMS).
199.232.38.2 (the power computing machine) permanent hostname in macDNS
is:
joshua.threeofus.com, and is aliased to: www.threeofus.com,
discuss.threeofus.com, news.threeofus.com, mail.threeofus.com,
pop.threeofus.com
199.232.8.4 is also plugged into the hub. It is a redhat linux 6.1 box.
this machine's permanent hostname in macDNS is monica.threeofus.com. it
is aliased to pop3.threeofus.com.
Lastly, 199.232.38.5 is an airport base station running dhcp so that my
wife can use her new iBook anywhere in the house.
Here's the problem:
I'm trying to setup MS Outlook on the iBook. My wife is
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. I want her to use mail.threeofus.com
(199.232.38.2, EIMS on the mac) for her smtp server. Ideally, I'd like any
mail sent, from anywhere, to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be spooled at
pop.threeofus.com (also 199.232.38.2, EIMS on the mac)...
Instead, here's what's happening.
mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] stays spooled on the mac and can be
retreived with outlook from pop.threeofus.com.
mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] winds up spooled on the linux box and
can be read with pine or mutt. Trying to get it from pop3.threeofus.com
or monica.threeofus.com doesn't work. For some reason, i am not able to
telnet to port 110 on monica.threeofus.com, the linux box.
There are other users @threeofus.com who DO ssh into the linux box for
their mail rather than using pop clients.... Basically, isn't there a way
to have smtp AND pop3 running on both monica.threeofus.com and
joshua.threeofus.com but make it so I can setup how mail for any
[EMAIL PROTECTED] gets handled (which machine it gets spooled on) on a
user by user basis?
TIA!
