Re: [IMail Forum] Store and Forward on Wednesday 1:22:13 AM
Thanks to all. I can verify the HOST only doesn't work. I am trying my
original settings now which will use the accept.txt. If I use the
Relay for Addresses, how do I pass mail for all users when I do not
know where all my users are connected by IP? Or can I just use the
domains IPs in this setting and it will work? If you read the IMail
docs they say you enter the users IPs which I cannot know for this
purpose. It appears my other domains will fail to work if I only put
the IPs of the client server.
What I want to do is retain my current local hosts and users and
simply add the store and forward feature to this.
