Mails over another Server

Is it possible to use a ScalixServer to collect and send Mails over another Emailserver at an EmailProvider like GMX etc.

If I understand what you want, I think Fetchmail will do the job well for you. This will allow you to pull email from another server and deliver them into a Scalix mailbox.

For sending, you could use a smarthost so that all outbound mail will go through a particular server.

Does that meet your needs?

Yes thank you! I have tried with fetchail today to pop an acount to scalix and it works

Smarthost is going to be configured tomorrow

Which distribution are you on?

If it is SLES, it may be linux.mc, and the resulting sendmail.cf may need to go into /etc

its a Suse 10.1 and there is a linux.mc but it has not these paramteres from the howto

The important parameter is this one:

define(`SMART_HOST', mailto.provider.com)dnl

Or, you can edit your sendmail,cf and change the DS parameter. It should read

DS

change it to

DSmailto.provider.com

Restart sendmail and you should be good to go.
