Dan,
I am currently doing the same thing here.
Make sure you internal DNS points to the internal network card/IP.
Make sure that you external DNS points to the external DNS NIC/IP. In each
DNS name them differently:
Internal: 10.10.1.20 - pop3.hbu.edu
External: 206.X.X.XX - mail.hbu.edu
Use only one MX record that points to mail.hbu.edu.
Also, you don't have to use the port 8383 if you don't want to. Change it
to 80 then you'll be able to access web based Email via http://pop3.hbu.edu
or if DNS is correct http://pop3.
FYI:
Make sure that your users use [EMAIL PROTECTED] not
[EMAIL PROTECTED], otherwise when someone replies to an Email that
the user sent it will be returned due to pop3.domain.com only being
accessible on your internal network.
Hope this helps,

Subject: [IMail Forum] Questions on implementing web messaging
I have a few questions on how web messaging will function using version 6.
I am currently on version 4 and not using web messaging and am considering
an upgrade to version 6.
I have Imail 4 currently running with both an internal (10.0.0.2) and an
external IP address assigned to each of 2 seperate domains. The internal IP
address is so that my internal network users can retreive mail without
having external web access.
We have a production facility with many users that don't have a specific
desktop computer, and they need to be able to check mail from any one of
several machines. They ususally do not have external web access. I would
like to upgrade to version 6 and enable web messaging so that these users
can use the browser interface as their sole email client.
Can the web messaging server be configured to serve pages on both the
internal and external IP's? Could I use a different template on each or
would they have to be the same?
Thanks
Dan Spangenberg
