I do this with someone now ... basically the domains records shows my Imail machine as the lowest MX record (ie MX = 10) ... all mail for that domain will come to my machine. I then define that domain in my HOSTS file with its actual IP address so my Imail machine knows where to relay it to ... Solves the problem where my machine receives all the mail from the outside world (scans it with Declude Virus as a plus) ... then does a quick turnaround and makes the ip connection to the private machine. Their IP is not exposed to the outside world. David Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
