Andy, Thanks for the reply. I actually had already removed their virtual and added them to my hosts file, but it didn't appear to work. The real issue was that unknown to me, someone in their organization had changed their Primary and Secondary DNS servers to another agency with their global registrant, so the world wasn't looking to me for their DNS. Once I figured that out and got the record changed, all is well again. Thanks again for the reply.

NEW records should be seen immediately. After you confirmed that the new MX record works, you can stop accepting mail for them. In addition you can add THEIR domain name and THEIR new IP Address to your HOSTS file (in SYSTEM32\Drivers\Etc). IMail will consult that file FIRST before looking up DNS. Thus, your server will know where to relay those messages to (assuming, of course that you no longer have a mail domain defined for that domain name in your IMAIL). Check the IPswitch knowledge base for "HOSTS" file.

I was wondering how I can relay for a domain through my Imail server. I'm currently running Imail 8.22 HF2. I have a customer that had a virtual domain on my server but built their own server yesterday. I thought I set the TTL to 1 hour last week, but apparently not. I changed the MX to point to their new server but the record still hasn't expired. Is there a way to forward to their server from mine? Mine is shown as the official MX record. I looked but didn't see how it's done. =20 Thanks, Art Plato.
