Hi Charlie,
Actually I want to replace obtuse-smtpd with qmail-smtpd.
Unless you can tell me how to get smtproutes working properly under
obtuse.
Here's whats' supposed to happen...
I have 3 mail servers.
Mail1 handles mail for several domains (it's running Sendmail under
RedHat 6.2)
Mail3 handles all mail for my protus.com domain (Running e-smith
4.0.1), has the domain name of mail.protus.com, and is a backup mail
handler for mail1. we have Multiple T1's mail for Mail1 comes down
one T1, if that link dies, it is routes to another T1 and is recieved
on Mail3. Mail3 then forwards all mail for Mail1 via the internal
network to Mail1.
mail2 is supposed to be an SMTP box only (running E-smith 4.1b2) and
it's domain name is mail2.protus.com. I need any mail for
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to be forwarded to Mail3, but it tries to deliver the
mail locally to mail2.
I also need to know what replaces the qmail rcpthosts file in obtuse.
The documentation on the obtuse website is rather lacking.
Thanks
