You need to be a litle careful, though. Do you run your own network? You probably don't want mail meant to be internal to your network to be routed out to your mail gateway. Do you use DNS? Also, some mail servers get upset (or at least skeptical) when your IP address is part of a private range used by something like a D-link router.
I guess the answer depends on how big your network is and what you're trying to accomplish. --- Nancy Anthracite <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dear Nancy, > > The answer is simple (Assuming that previous setup has been done). > After > doing this all mail destined for the Internet will be routed through > SMTP.ISPNAME.NET as long as the primary domain name (the one with a > single > label like "com" or "net" or "edu") is defined as a synonym to it. > > Courtesy of Lee Hirz: > > 1.
