Were you reading the msgs yesterday? I answered this.
1. The MX 10 machine must have a fixed ip address.
2. In NT of Imail machine, in the NT hosts file:
ip.ad.re.ss mx10domain.Com
This tells Imail to accept mail for this domain and to what ip to
relay that mail. It does permit Imail to relay the mail, see next point.
3. In Imail, smtp security:relay options:relay for addresses: ip.ad.re.ss
This tells Imail to "trust" this ip for relay mail, both incoming and outgoing.
4. DNS: you seem to have that figured out.
