I think the way it works is that domainname.com would be the domain name of who the mail is going to.

For example if you wanted to route all emails to Comcast addresses thru a mailserver at IP 74.28.22.16 via port 26 you would have a line that says:

comcast.net:74.28.22.16:26

What version of qmail

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to set up the smtproutes file in /var/qmail/control/smtproutes

with the following information:

domainname.com:ip_address_dest:587

restarted qmail with:

qmailctl stop

qmailctl start

systemctl restart dovecot

But when I send an email from domainname.com it does not relay to the ip_address_dest server, instead it goes directly to the destination domain and does not do the smarthost function. Checking the logs in /var/log/qmail/send/current it does not even try to contact the smarthost! Maybe I am missing to restart any other service related to qmail to read the new config file?

Do you know what i am missing here to get it work ok?

Have a nice day!

Mike
