Matt, thanks for the detailed comments confirming what I thought. My original post was that I wanted to try and include webmail users along with non webmail users. I thought that might be possible using a gateway but no one here seems to use ASSP as the gateway for imail. So I guess I will need to make some kind of spam submission system for webmail users unless there is some file in webmail that can be modified to tell webmail to use a different smtp server for sending mail.

Try it and check your ASSP logs. No, that's not correct. As Nelson originally pointed out ASSP is running on port 25 and web mail is not. The two are independent of one another as a result. If you check the ASSP logs you'll see nothing shows up in them. This is all true on a single box running Imail and ASSP together. Not sure what would happen if you split them up. This separation introduces issues with using ASSP. Notably, how do your users build whitelists if they effectively are not a part of the system? ASSP has alternative methods of submitting whitelist entries, and you can write up a script to create a web-based interface to it. Not as convenient as just sending mail, but its an acceptable substitute on a server where I try to discourage reliance on web mail. -------------------------------------------- Matt Robertson [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com -------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
