I have an exchange server, and all clients send mail through MAPI.. the server is configured to use my ASSP box as a smarthost, to which it sends all outgoing mail via SMTP. If your not doing this, it is best to use add a 'connector' from the system manager and add your mail server(s) to it. Under advanced on the connector, I had to use 'Use HELO instead of EHLO" because ASSP is in front of sendmail, which sendmail was timing out and confused by the way exchange sends EHLO for some reason.
Not sure your issue if this doesn't resolve it... Paul K. Dickson Frederick County Government x12399 "Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.

Yeah, what he said. I needed the sub-domain because I have an Exchange server and the Outlook client doesn't use SMTP, so I can't route internal mail through ASSP.

If your clients are sending directly to ASSP (atypical), then you do not have to create a bogus domain. Think it through - the bogus domain is to trick your MTA to send the email through the ASSP server. If you don't have to do it because of your setup, then don't bother. It wont hurt anything either way though. > even had to create a bogus domain. Why do the report emails even make > it to my mail server? My mail server sits behind ASSP.

The messages should not make it to your mail server, and your mail server should not have mailbox for those addresses. As I said in a previous message, those addresses are bogus. > recognize that the report emails are addressed to the one of the report > email address and not forward them to the mail server?

That's what the list is for, and I for one appreciate any questions that will offer everyone greater clarity in the long-run. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Take Surveys.
