The situation we've tried to deal with before is a customer saying,
"mail to hotmail.com must come from a different address". The server's
"main" address set in main.cf is 1.1.1.1, and the "other" address is 1.1.1.2
This is what we thought *should* work, but apparently it doesn't. I'd
love to be told that it actually works.
1. Add an extra smtp service to master.cf:
smtphotmail inet n - - - - smtpd
-o smtp_bind_address=1.1.1.2
2. Add a transport mapping for the destination
hotmail.com smtphotmail:
3. Run postmap over the transport file and reload (or restart) postfix
to pick up the changes.
The smtp_bind_address apparently can't be set in this manner, though
I've never found out the reason for it.
