I'm currently evaluating iMS to determine whether it meets all the requirements for my current application. Is SMTP/B not available in the Evaluation?

The iMS SMTP/B server is the same service as the SMTP server.  The SMTP/B server is enabled when you have a POST Server license but no SMTP server license.  The SMTP/B server will accept all mail destined for a recipient whose email address begins with "bounce-" and will reject all other recipients.  The sole template that is used is the DATA.CFM template.  You can process the bounce inside of that template.
 
So, when you send mail that you want to process bounces for you should set the smtpfrom and the return-path header to be a unique bounce address.
 
For example:
 
<cfquery name="myquery" ...>
select email,uid from mailtable
</cfquery>
 
<cfx_imsmail query="myquery" smtpfrom="bounce-<:uid:>@somewhere.com" header_return_path=smtpfrom="bounce-<:uid:>@somewhere.com"  ...>

I've just finished reading about how the SMTP/B (Bounce) server works, but I do not see where this is enabled or administered. Is SMTP/B just a function of the regular SMTP server where messages coming in with bounce- in the TO field are handled differently?
 
Thanks,
