relaying mail for a specific domain
Ian Harris
Is there a way of specifying how emails from a particular domain are
relayed?
Currently our charity is split over three offices around the country.
The way the network/email is configured currently (and has been
working fine for about a year) is our mail gets relayed by SMTP to
GroupWise at one site, anything that is undelivered then gets sent by
SMTP to the next office and whatever is undelievered from there gets
relayed to the third office. Each office has groupwise running on the
server and then any outgoing mail from each office would get sent
directly from their GroupWise. The setup was configured this way
because of bandwidth consideration. We didn't want all offices to pick
up mail and send mail from one location (all in all there are about
200 people working in this organisation).
The problem is AOL doesn't like our emails coming straight from
GroupWise - their spam-filtering deletes the messages. We have
configured outlook express in the office to send mail through our ISPs
mail relays and those mails get through. The reverse-DNS lookups AOL
do on emails classifys ours as spam.
Sorry to go on a bit but has anyone else had a problem relaying from
directly from GroupWise to AOL? - Does anyone know if we can route
internal mail through SMTP to one server (i.e. the next location) and
any other mail (i.e. Internet mail) to go through another SMTP server?
Cheers,
Ian
