[xmail] Re: Binding XMail to a specific NIC/IP address
I must chuckle - everything is solved with Linux - in this case IPTABLES does it. This is not a solution for the w32 environment. Some options have been thrown around in this thread, and I'm sure will work. However the solutions often complicate the email system beyond a point where future problem solving becomes rather dificult. Most w32 based mail servers I've used (and there are many) will bind SMTP to the IP address specified for BOTH in and out going SMTP connections. This may not be the default in the linux world, hence Davide has built XMail to listen only on the specified IP address. Any good firewall (or IPtables) should be able to translate the addresses, but the original problem as I recall was that the server had 2 nics and one nic was very busy doing non mail tasks. The other was dedicated to mail, however outbound smtp mail was not going out this nic. An alternate solution is to change which is the default nic.!!

[xmail] Re: Binding XMail to a specific NIC/IP address
SpamCop is rubbish in my opinion, unfortunately many people think its great. The Windows server has 2 NICS with 2 different IP addresses. The firewall uses NAT to give these 2 NIC's different static IP's for the internet on outbound connections. If I could get windows to bind one SMTP service running on port 25 to one NIC/IP and bind the other SMTP service running on port 2525 to the other NIC/IP all my problems would be solved. I suppose being able to specify what outbound port Xmail could use and then using the Firewall NAT to translate all connections would also work, but I am not certain that it would. I would love to use a second machine. I swear as techies become management their intelligence decreases with each promotion.

[xmail] Re: Binding XMail to a specific NIC/IP address
I fully agree with you Davide. Unfortunatly management sees something that is hard to administer. For instance I can talk one of the others non-network people through fixing something on windows. To do the same thing takes 5 times as long on Linux because they are unfamiliar with it. I was brought up with MS-DOS before Windows 3 so I have never had any problems with command line tolls etc. I don't think a single programmer at work could do anything in linux with out some kind of GUI. With me being the only support person I can get calls any time night or day even if I am on holiday so I need something that I can talk a complete Muppet (management) through as quickly and as easily as possible. Hopefully later this year I will be able to get a linux box for internal DNS and IDS as we seem to be coming under a lot of attacks recently. At home I am running Red Hat 9, WinXP and Windows 2003. They all have their uses and I use them all. Just wish management could see that Linux can be useful too.
