Hi List,

I have a internal mailrelay, that I would like to provide following service:
1. mail to our own domain is send directly to our externally hosted
(outsourced) mailserver
2. mail to external domains are relayed through ISP-mail-relay only for
specific domains

I have the following in my main.cf now (not enabled yet):
#<our_own_domain.com> smtp:<our_external_hosted_mailserver>
#<servicepartner1> relay:<our_isp_mailrelay>
#<servicepartner2> relay:<our_isp_mailrelay>
#<servicepartner3> relay:<our_isp_mailrelay>
#<servicepartner4> relay:<our_isp_mailrelay>
#<servicepartner5> relay:<our_isp_mailrelay>

My server is used primarily (99,96% are going to our_own_domain) by
internal services to send notifications to our users, but also some mails
are needed to a handfull external servicepartners...
Soon we will also send critical alert from our monitoring solution, and I
would therefore like to get the most secure solution without implementing a
filter, that might blacklist vital alerts
I will get my server whitelisted also in our_external_hosted_mailserver to
accept all mails (no filtering) to make sure all mails are comming in and
not stopped by a spamfilter there...
It would then only be possible to send spam to our servicepartners this way
- which I guess should be highly unlikely to happen...?

1. Is this the right way to do it - or are there better alternatives ?
2. When should I use smtp/relay in my config - does the above seem to be
correct ?


Thanks in advance :-)
