Hi, Problem: when we enter a new virtual mail host, the host is named mail.<domain>, e.g. mail.xyz.com. A host alias is entered for xyz.com and before we switched to version 8.20 this solution worked since Imail version 3. After the upgrade from 8.15 + HF to 8.20 + HF2 the server does not accept messages for [EMAIL PROTECTED] but has no problem with [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Virtual mail servers entered via version 8.15 (255 in total) and upgraded to 8.20 do not have this problem. All new entries (via 8.20) do not recognize the host alias. Environment: Windows 2000 Server with all patches applied, Imail 8.20 HF2. The server is used for Imail only. When we enter xyz.com as the official host name and skip the host alias, mail for [EMAIL PROTECTED] is delivered without problem. Don't ask why we use the abovementioned official host name/ host alias construction, but it worked for almost 10 years. Is anyone using host aliases and if you do, do you recognize the problem for newly entered virtual hosts and what is the format you are using for the official host name and for the host alias? When I typed in this message I noticed the number of virtual hosts, 255. Including the standard host with IP it makes 256. Remarkable figure? Thank you, Henk de Vree Plaza Productions B.V.
