I'm using the same solution that Francis described without problems. Try to search in the list about this topic. I'm the first that related it few months ago.

Seems (but not completly clarified/debugged at this time) 'xmail 1.21' have some problems with some 'domains' zones setup (hotmail and yahoo in most cases). Seems xmail or dns server or tcp stack ? finaly choose the domain A record and not the MX record for the domain in some cases ! even if a nslookup or dig get the correct response ... I had the same problem, and configured xmail to allways use a smtp gateway (a iis smtp server on another computer using the same dns server for final delivery !!) to temporary resolve sending to these domains (especialy hotmail ...) So, if you isp provide you a smtp gateway, tell xmail to deliver to it and let the isp smtp server do the job. Put this line in smtpfwd.tab (replace a.b.c.d with you isp smtp server) : "*" "a.b.c.d:25" As I said previously I have to get some tcp dumps to help understand the problem when xmail resolves by itself on these domains but my xmail server is in 'production' (for customers) and i can't test with it for this delivery problem so I need to find time to run another server on another 'dummy' domain ...
