Since your DNS is internal you can use your E-Mail internally without change. Your mail client package should be able to get a name resolution to your I-Mail server from your DNS.
This is assuming your local DNS has an MX record for your domain (MX = mail exchange) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of John T.

I realize that nothing would go out, but would email sent to others from the same domain to the same domain still be available in this way? Yes, we have a dns server running inside our network, but only for internal use. At the present time, our internet email is using our ISP's dns. Thanks again.

If your DNS is outside your network no. (from regular services) However, if you want to, and I wouldn't, you could supply your people with the IP address of the mail server and the port number. They can enter this in the address bar of their web browser, example http://143.51.234.22:8383 and that will get them to the mail server. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of John T. Moran Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 10:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] Imail without internet I just installed Imail in our NT 4 domain network. I was wondering if we lost our internet connection, would users still be able to send email to other inside our network? We've been using Microsoft Mail inside and internet email thru our ISP for outside. We took over the internet mail and merged the two and I've been asked this question. Thanks.
