Me again!

Apologies for benal question.....

I have a second scalix server now in another site(wow!) and would like to route all outgoing mail from that (including internet mail) back to the first server and out through its internet mail gateway.

I know this is possible, just not sure how!

Currently internet mail is sitting in the sendmail queue and not going anywhere as the machine has no direct internet access. I could configure a smarthost in sendmail to relay everthing back to our SMTP mail gateway but don't think this is necessary.

Could someone indicate how best to set up the routing on the new server?

Cheers!

If you're an Enterprise customer you would create routes (see omaddrt) from one server to another. If you're using Community Ed, then you will have to go the sendmail smarthost route to push mail back to your other Scalix server.

Thanks,
Rachel

If you are enterprise there is a good cookbook for this here:

Thanks Don,

This was the bit I was looking for:

Code: Select all

Configuring outbound internet messages
--------------------------------------

If you want to use serverA as a bridgehead to the internet, you will need to configure Scalix on serverB to be able to route all internet mail to serverA.

omoff -d 0 router
omdelrt -m internet
omdelrt -m internet,tnef
omaddrt -m internet -q SMINTFC -i scalix@serverA.domain.com
omaddrt -m internet,* -q SMINTFC -i scalix@serverA.domain.com
omon router

You need both the omaddrt commands because you have the standard MIME route and also the TNEF route.

Thanks for the pointer!

Cheers!
