Divert non local users mail
« on: March 23, 2001, 03:46:05 PM »
Hi
I have a registered domain and collect mail from my isp which is routed to local mailboxes, no problem. I also have external address in my domain which I do not collect mail for , when i try to send mail to these users it gets bounced ( sorry no mailbox hereby that name) Is it possible to route non-local user mail to my isp smtp server. I have dialup internet access so I cant collect all the mail and then give acess to my server from the internet.

Hi,

"I also have external address in my domain which I do not collect mail for "

Does this mean you created virtual domain(s) for these "external" addresses??

If so, you must create "local" users, if you did, this must b a .conf file issue...

lets wait ans see who is the 'helping hand'...

mw maybe you can try with the above???...

An example address would help to clarify the above!

If they are in your domain, meaning user@yourdomain.com, you need to add them as normal users via the e-smith-manager then choose:

Email delivery:  Forward to address below
Forwarding address:  

Again, because you did not provide an example this is my 'guess' as to what you meant.
