Grant, I set it up on the imail box. At the time we were using our ISP's virtual mail so the imail server was free to receive mail to the virtual domain that I set up. I had our ISP set up mx and ptr records for the virtual domain only to the imail box while the main domain was still forwarding to the ISP's servers. Once I was satisfied with the performance of the server I switched the main domain over to the imail box.
