>I know that iMAIL is tied to the hostname in the DNS tab.
ok. (whatever a "DNS tab" is, sounds like some MS drug you ought not
to ingest)
>What we need to do is change the IP of the NIC card.
ok, this has nothing to do with Imail directly. Reboot after
changing the ip. NT isn't too cool about picking ip changes up on the fly.
>Our current hostname is the one iMAIL uses. We do want to keep iMAIL
>tied to that host name
ok. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Imail can handle it.
>but we don't want that hostname tied to the NIC IP number.
What do you want to tie it to? some new ip I reckon, no? The NT
machine name can be whatever you want, the NT tcp/ip hostname can be
whatever you want, the DNS hostnames can be whatever you want, they
are unconnected.
>Is there a way to get this done in iMAIL?
Imail does it for you by learning any, all new ip's automatically
from the NT tcp/ip settings during each boot up. What Imail doesn't
do is forget the old ip's, so see the KB about how to delete them.
It sounds like you can't or don't want to touch DNS? You lose. gottaduit.
