I once had a client (back in the old days) complaining about the speed of internet. He 'd suggested to 'rewrite the -world wide web- darn thing'.
What difference will it make in speed nowadays? 3 - 4 secs? Or are we talking about an expensive sat-link (or mobile modem) where you have to pay for every bit that has been sent? I'd really like to know the real reason (not). -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Rob Arends [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Verzonden: maandag 17 februari 2003 4:42 Aan: XMail mailing list Onderwerp: [xmail] SMTP routing based on source email address ?? This is probably a good one for Davide. I have a customer that wants to route certain outgoing emails though a different internet link (a faster link) for certain users of a domain. It gets better !! The two internet links are connected to the same firewall, so at the IP layer the firewall (a packet filtering only firewall) cannot distinguish between the two user groups. My thought was that I could have two instances of xmail running bound to different IP addresses, and route the priority users through the second xmail, the firewall would see a different source IP and be able to route the traffic accordingly. The problem is, how to route at the application layer, certain users to the second xmail. All users have the same internet domain. I'm not concerned with incomming mail, it can come in through the first xmail server. Alternately if anyone has other options for achieving the same end, or other products that can route email based on source email address, I'd really like to hear about them.
