I've upgraded to 2.5 but Symantec can't seem to put the file up on digital river correctly so I can download what I purchased. I bought the 10 licenses and the media pack. This is the second time Symantec's ineptness with this one product has cost me many hours of frustration with them. I have a Vircom relay server as my 10 MX record. On another mail server (a spooling one), I have NAVGW set up on port 26. I never put the real mail server in my DNS records. All mail has to go thru at least one other mail server first. I add the domains in NAVGW and point them to the main mail server. In all the routing files on the inbound mail servers that act as spooling and spam filtering servers, I point to the FQDN of the server where NAVGW is and the port and ship the emails over there before they get to the final destination. However, occasionally, either NAVGW doesn't like Vircom's way of sending, or Vircom doesn't always go to the right port on the NAVGW server, because the two programs get dumb on a domain and I'll find it in the domains directory on the Vircom server. It keeps saying it's trying, but once it can't connect with that domain's email to the NAVGW machine, I have to go through hoops to get it moving again. The DOOMAIN.MRI file does not reflect what port on the receiving mail server it's trying, just the IP address. I reboot the NAVGW machine, then in the Vircom config, I route the mail to the main mail server, bypassing the NAVGW machine, Once it clears the holding mail, I put the IP and port 26 back into the routes area for the domain and it works for another few days. It's random stupidity on one of these two program's parts. I put a message in here a week or so ago, but there was no response at all. Other than that, the NAVGW 2.1 is catching most of the viruses... I'm hoping 2.5 will do better. <sigh> brenda --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
