I have setup the mail servers to access a file server and also an external
database.
so in theory the same accounts should be on each.

what is RTFM?

Kind Regards
Long

hmmm, how do you do that?  sounds kinda miraculous

ok, miracles don�t happen.  :)))

Go RTFM on peering and think real hard how it works.  HINT: a mail account
exist on and is known to only one just one Imail peer server, it is not
replicated to other Imail peer(s).

Boy, you really haven�t RTFM.  Peering ONLY affects SMTP incoming traffic,
not  mailboxes, not POP3, and not web mail.

Where you want to go is an arrival-challenged destination, at least in the
Imail peermobile.
