Re: [qmailtoaster] automtically forward emails from Primary Serverto Secondary Server
Hi Guys, Thanks for the input. I knew that subdomain/alias domains can do this job, but asking the users change the email addresses to subdomain might be a critical mass. I think copy the certain folders to Site B server would be much more effective, but I worry that the emails might be too large, and might hang the VPN tunneling... anyone have done this before??

this was in the other thread on the same issue you started as well... your clients should use the submission port, 587. you must do two things. 1) open up port 587 on your firewall to allow port 587 connections to your q-mail server... 2) set up the clients to use port 587 for their smtp port. for outlook, you need to go to the outgoing server tab in the account properties and check my outgoing server requires authentication and set up the appropriate settings and information, and also on the advanced tab you must change the port from 25 to 587. also, make sure you do not check requires ssl connection checkbox. you can get to this config window by going to toolse-mail accounts, edit or change e-mail accounts, then double clicking on the account. then you must click on the more settings button. this is on outlook 2003, others may vary. remember this is on the client machine! _ From: Ahmed Shareef [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 02, 2007 2:09 AM To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Subject: Re: [qmailtoaster] It is very urgent I will be appreciate your early response Even I have tried without SSL still the same problem Thanks On 9/2/07, Kyle Quillen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What happens if you try to just do a basic smtp connection without ssl?

Guys,
Thanks for the input. I knew that subdomain/alias domains can do
this job, but asking the users change the email addresses to subdomain might
be a critical mass.
I think copy the certain folders to Site B server
would be much more effective, but I worry that the emails might be too large,
and might hang the VPN tunneling...
anyone have done this
before??
Thanks
-

I never even though about using the hostname in the forward
address. That's exactly what I wanted. I'm not sure if
Merak will do hostname (easy to test) but it certainly will do alias
domains. Thanks LOADS!!!
Gabriel, does this help
you? I think I have enough info to be able to get you on the right
direction.
Phil

Yes - at least in qmailadmin when you check the forward to box it has
the
option of keeping a copy locally...which you don't have to
do. So it could
come into the qmail server and be forwarded
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You
would have to specify the
host's fqdn since mx records point to qmail. I am
NOT sure
if merak would accept it with the fqdn of the host though. I
don't
think qmail will, but someone else with more knowledge could
respond to that
point. It might be just as simple as
creating an alias domain (you can in
qmail) of merak.domain1.com
aliases to domain1.com on merak. Hope that
makes
sense...and helps.

That last got sent too early
I'm actually looking for a similar solution. I want to
make a slow
migration from my current post office software.
Both of my servers are in same location. Let me explain
what I want to do
and maybe that will help Gabriel too.
I have Qmail on one machine and Merak on the other. I have
about 40 domains
in Merak.
- If I added domain1.com to Qmail
and it already had it with users in Merak.
I want to duplicate the
users in Qmail and I'll set the MX to send into
Qmail.
- On a user by user basis I want to move the users storage into Qmail
to
make it as transparent to them as possible. So currently
say I have 4 users
all in Merak for domain1.com. I want to
have the same 4 users in Qmail but
when mail comes in, forward the
specific accounts to another host as the
accounts move.
I'm envisioning this in the middle of the process:
Accounts
in
Qmail
Accounts in Merak
MaryMary
Forward to Merak
Joe Joe
Stay in Qmail
Fred
Fred
Stay
in Qmail
JaneJane
Forward to
