SMTP relies on DNS lookup for the MX records, there is no way around and there is no way around that ... ... however if you are on your LAN and you know what machines are acting as MX you can use a "relay via" rule instead of a "relay" rule to bypass the MX lookup and perform a direct connection. -- Gilles Chehade https://www.poolp.org @poolpOrg -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to [email protected] To unsubscribe, send a mail to: [email protected]
