Hi Bill- Add the IP address in SMTP "Relay-for" and stop/start the SMTP service. Add the client's server to your HOSTS file, and that should do it.
Unless you have a list of valid users, aliases, and lists maintained by the client's server, don't enter the domain into the IMail control panel. If you do have that info, be sure that everything is aliased to mail.customerdomain.com and that you also have mail.customerdomain.com in your hosts file pointing to the correct IP address. -Dave Doherty Skywaves, Inc. 97 Webster Street Worcester, MA 01603 508-425-7176 ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Foresman To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 10:21 AM Subject: [IMail Forum] backup mx I read through the KB article about being a backup mail server for someone and it doesn’t appear to be working as email is bouncing due to their server being down. http://www.ipswitch.com/Support/ICS/guides/IMailServer/8_2/IMailUGHTML/Chapter%202%20config15.html#16443 It looks pretty straight forward but I must be missing something. Are there other things that need to be done for this to work? Thanks, Bill Foresman Matrosity Hosting www.matrosity.com 850-656-2644
