Yes, you could set up 2 kind of scenarios. Let's say you should have 2 smtp servers running, one for LAN (IN/OUT) traffic (let's called SMTP-LAN) where you could also allow incomming traffic from external (internet) source for example POP3-SSL and SMTP-SSL, and a SMTP-WAN only server that will accept emails from the SMTP-LAN which destination emails are not the same LAN addresses and Internet (ex. google/yahoo, etc...) As stated above, it is the most common scenario on big companies. If you only have one server and lot of hardware resources, you can also think on virtualization, so you can have both servers on the same hardware and at the same time save some money. > Of course, whacking the user with a clue-bat and telling > them to send > those kind of messages at the end of the day so they can > process > overnight would help too! :) That is called "usage policies", services a company gives to their employees in order to do work easier. Consider this in order to apply it to users. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list courier-users@lists.sourceforge.net Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
