Advice on test configuration sought
« on: November 10, 2008, 05:10:35 AM »
I have a test SME Server (running under VMware) that is on the same LAN as my production server, and configured in server-only mode.

I'm currently testing Zarafa, and need to be able to send and receive to and from my production box as part of the testing. I have used a fake domain name, but my production box doesn't know how to deliver mail to it (even though it can ping it, as I added the name to /etc/hosts).

Is there a way to configure qmail to be able to deliver to the test box?

Thanks,

Des

this will deliver mail for one domain to the internal server.  Note that all email will have been spam-filtered by your server-gateway SME:

Alternatively, you would need to setup a port redirect for your test domain as described here: http://wiki.contribs.org/PortRedirect

Many thanks - the first suggestion was exactly what I needed.
