Forwd mail

2001-12-14 Thread Pedro Braga

Hello,
is there a way to the MX server redirect the SMTP connection to another
domain without receving the mail?

What I want is to serve a domain (domain.com) and when a box trying
to relay mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in my server it would get a response
like: "ok I serve thar domain and the user exists, but deliver the mail
to [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I understand that if I use the ".forward" in the user account I
would get the same effect except that the mail would be sent to my
server and then my server would forward to the 2nd address -- spends
bandwith!!!

I think SMTP does't support that but.. just in case!

Thanks,

I don't know if you can do that without modifying some code. What we are
doing is using port forwarding to forward port 25 to a host on our
internal network, but that forwards all traffic to port 25 of that IP
address, not just mail for a certain domain, and it also doesn't
translate usernames.

Anyways, even if you do forward it like that, you won't save any
bandwidth, only a little disk space maybe.

¿Why can't you just change the MX to point to the other server?

Edit your socket.h to remove the code in question.

I've fixed this with the following:
#ifndef HAVE_IPV6
#define in_port_t uint16_t
#endif
If you have old headers that don't define in_port_t then IPv6 probably won't 
work for you anyway.

Yes, callback currently doesn't compile.  I'll have to fix that.

I've put a Potato package on http://www.coker.com.au/portslave/ .
