Hello All!
This is the third time I've posted, without response. Either
it's not getting out, or no one knows the answer, or I should
be reading a FAQ somewhere. Can anyone please point me to the
right FAQ?
Message Follows:
I've got a mail server on a private network (192.168.x.x) which
I want to periodically pick up mail from my server that's
co-located elsewhere. Both servers are running qmail.
The public server has MX records for my domain, pointing to
it. Mail to/from there seems to be working just fine.
Right now, I'm just using a pop client to pick up the mail
when I'm connected, but that's not a good solution.
I want the private server to periodically dialin, pick up
the messages, send any that are queued (this is already
working), and deliver via POP (also already working).
SO, do I switch the public server from handling the mail
as a standard domain to a virtual domain? How do I get
the private server (which has a DYNAMIC IP address) to
pickup the mail?
I've looked at both fetchmail and serialmail. I think I
understand how to do this with fetchmail, but I cannot
make heads or tails of the serialmail "docs". I would
LOVE to do this via ssh tunnelling if I can.
It seems that serialmail will only work if the dialin
server has a static IP address (ie, there's no way to
tell it to send to my dialup dynamic address?)
Any advice, suggestions, etc?
