http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19980116-DM01.htm is what you are looking for. You do *not* enter the domain in IMail (or else the mail will get stored locally); you just enter it in the HOSTS file. You need to enter whatever host(s) the mail will be addressed as -- normally just "example.com", but if mail may be coming to "mail.example.com", you would need to add that, too. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
