HI all: I have a customer who is changing over his domain. At this time he wanted no mail coming from his southeasternmelon.com domain. I shut off "accept mail for" in IMS control panel and also in Mikes smtprcv and repopped the servers. Now I am still receiving the mail to his domain 2 days later, but the mail is staying in the prein directory. I know I can change the domain name server records, but did think I needed to do such a thing at this time. In the next month or so he will want his mail reenabled anyhow. It is no big deal, but I would like to know for future reference why shutting off accept mail for, did not work.
2) On a differant note. What are the .old messages in prein used for anyhow? simply a record of what was distributed? How can I get IMS to stop creating them? Yesterday I had a lockup of IMS. I found out that a message was corrupted in the prein directory. (after much lost hair, and 3 hrs troubleshooting) After much finagling I found 38,000 .old messages in the prein. I do not need such things so how can I prevent ims from creating them? THank you Very respectfully, your obedient servant. Brig. Gen.
