Title: Disabling mail for certain domains
Post by: askelon on June 12, 2007, 04:22:53 AM

Is there a way of disabling mail for certain domains?  I have my primary domain and about 6 others I use but only two actually have email used on them - the others are forwarded at my isp end to other email accounts.  Juts makes it a little hard if I try emailing anyone in those domains :). Running SME 7.1.3 btw.

no.

I don't understand what you are trying to do.

If I guess correctly what you are doing, then it's probably better to setup all your domains on your sme server, and then delegate your mail for certain domains to the external mail server at your ISP, rather than forwarding mail as you do at present.

There are forum posts giving the db commands necessary to delegate mail for certain domains only, so search.
Here is one post
