Actually, it's anything _but_ mail.domain.com that is used as the routing domain (the target domain in the aliases). The assumption is that mail.domain.com (or storeforward.domain.com, my preference) is used as the IMail virtual host, with domain.com as a host alias. You use a _third_ domain is the routing domain: this domain is not local to IMail at all, by definition. One way to kludge up a routing domain is to use the source-routing form @[EMAIL PROTECTED], where 1.2.3.4 is the Exchange server. > I suppose that you have a reason for not using ORF to validate > accounts for this domain.

True, once you're running MS SMTP, ORF's built-in Exchange sync is very helpful. And with 1MM RCPTs/day and no local mailboxes, MS SMTP would be a better choice for an MX. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ 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/
