Can we keep it on list. I would be interested in hearing about this. We just started charging for this and it seems like a service that is valuable to customers who have their own mail servers in house but need a back up if it fails. I would be interested to see what others are charging? Is it based upon volume, number of users (how do you tell without writing a log analysis script), etc.

There's a lot of confusion going on in this thread due to the lack of differentiation between 'store and forward' and 'outbound relay'. We provide 'store and forward' services for many domains. When I add a new domain I do the following: First I add a record to the IMail server's HOST file with the ip of the mail server I'm forwarding to. That's ALL I do. When the customer adds or changes their DNS entries and adds an MX which points to my IMail server, store and forward relaying begins. END OF STORY. Nothing else is required! 'Outbound Relay" is another issue with different things to be done. You said that you don't want to do this so I'm not going to cover those simple steps here.
