Hi,

Our smtp server has some issues when talking to some remote mx's. This
results in a timeout and the message not being delivered (this was
discussed on this mailinglist but there doesn't seem to be a real
solution available now). When we relay the message through another
server the remote mx happily accepts the message. I only want to relay
messages through the other server when a timeout occurs. I was thinking
of using fail2ban for this. I want to watch the maillog with fail2ban
and when timeouts appear I want fail2ban to write a line to the
transport??? map. How do I redirect messages with a certain destination
mx to another mail server (one of our relays)?


Example:

mail to i...@goofyandtheregulars.com will be delivered to
mx-cluster-b1.one.com or mx-cluster-b2.one.com. But will give a timeout
when talking to that machine. So I want to redirect message to
mx-cluster-b1.one.com and mx-cluster-b2.one.com to mx2.youngguns.nl.

thanks,
Martijn
