smtpd.cfg issue - I think

Hello, I’m a total Linux/Scalix newbie but here is what I’ve got going on.
My employer has several domains, each set up as mail nodes via SAC. All domains in use are real world domains [not just for internal use]. The SWA feature works with the primary, and other mail nodes for the standard sending and receiving of emails. The issue that I’m having is when I try to set up internet user accounts. Basically I’m trying to have email sent to me@domain2.com get redirected to myName@outsidedomain.com. This process works perfectly when the internal domain is the primary domain ie… me@domain1.com, however when I try to do this same process with a mail node that is not the primary I keep getting the error “550 Denied due to spam list.”
After spending quite a bit of time in this form I found a reference stating that the var/opt/scalix/smtpd.cfg may need to be edited to allow relaying for the other mail nodes. I have edited the smtpd.cfg file as so:
RELAY accept 127.0.0.1
RELAY accept .domain1.com
RELAY accept .domain2.com
RELAY Log_Reject ALL

So, after all this, I’m still having the same problems, any idea where I should look next?
I running a new install of CentOS-4, with Scalix 10.

Thank you in advance

Did you restart the SMTP relay?

Code: Select all

omoff -d0 -w smtpd
omon -w smtpd


Also, make sure the machines doing the sending is registered in DNS so the IP's resolve to machinename.domain1.com or machinename.domain2.com. For security you may also want to look at SMTP Auth.
