It would make a great XMail box -- just put linux on it... -----Mensaje original----- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] nombre de Alex Young Enviado el: Thursday, June 05, 2003 11:29 AM Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: [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. Its almost impossible to make them understand the need for new hardware and/or software. They want to know what's wrong with the PII 233mhz with 128mb of ram running NT4 and why we cant install Xmail and other stuff on that!

Have you looked for an ip forwarder that can bind to different NICs or = do you even have the luxury of using a second machine?
