RE: [Spam] [IMail Forum] Primary Host Trashed

[Grant Griffith - IMail]

Christopher,   I would be very interested in how you have the Mail Security setup for SMTP.  I have it installed on the server, I just have not activated it yet.   Thanks, Grant Griffith EI8HTLEGS, A Division of ETC (812)932-1000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher Jones Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 8:15 PM To: IMail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: RE: [Spam] [IMail Forum] Primary Host Trashed   Below is the script we use. We also have Symantec Mail Security for SMTP installed on the same machine and we also backup the registry settings for this program and it’s CONFIG file.   For reference, the path \\dremail is the name our Disaster Recovery email server which I also have Imail 8.20 installed on. In the case of a disaster I can change the IP of this server, restore the registry files, and away it goes.   Essentially you would only need the first 3 lines of the script to backup the Imail Registry to another location. Hope it helps!!!!   Chris       set wshshell = wscript.createobject("WScript.Shell") command = "c:\winnt\regedit.exe /e \\dremail\e$\email-backup\Imail-Day-" + cstr(day(date())) + ".reg " + chr(34) + "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch" + chr(34) wshshell.run command,0,true command = "c:\winnt\regedit.exe /e \\dremail\e$\email-backup\SMSSMTP-Day-" + cstr(day(date())) + ".reg " + chr(34) + "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\SMSSMTP" + chr(34) wshshell.run command,0,true set fso = wscript.createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") set f1 = fso.getfile("d:\program files\symantec\smssmtp\local\smssmtp.cfg") f1.copy("\\dremail\e$\email-backup\SMSSMTP-Day-" + cstr(day(date())) + ".cfg")     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matrosity Tech Support Sent: Tuesday, 24 May 2005 11:05 AM To: IMail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: Re: [Spam] [IMail Forum] Primary Host Trashed   great! How about sharing it? :) Christopher Jones wrote: Hey guys,   We have a script that we schedule to run every night that exports the following registry key:   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Ipswitch   This registry key is backed up to a location on another server every night so we always have a backup of it. From memory, I think we keep the last 30 days worth of backups.   The few times that I've rebuilt the email server or moved to another server I've installed Imail to the same location, restored this entire registry key, and Imail immediately has all my domains and user accounts setup. It's almost too easy!!!   Chris   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Mike Hell Sent: Tuesday, 24 May 2005 10:34 AM To: IMail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Subject: Re: [Spam] [IMail Forum] Primary Host Trashed   What is this "backup" thing you speak of??   :)   - Mike (someone who's been slacking off on his backups recently)         ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matrosity Tech Support" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <IMail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com> Sent: Monday, May 23, 2005 3:41 PM Subject: Re: [Spam] [IMail Forum] Primary Host Trashed       backup? Rob Taylor wrote:      I added a new host to Imail and entered an IP that was already in use. The new host tied itself in with an existing host. Thinking it to be no problem, to fix this, I deleted the new host addition and it also modified the existing host information, it was now linked to the primary host.. Being in this deep and needing the original existing host to work again, I deleted the host and the primary host account went away instead. The host was then deleted and I started all over by adding the host back.         The host works fine but the issue now is lack of a primary host? Originally, the primary host was imail.mydomain.Local and other domains have the AntiSpam marked to use the Primary's List. I believe the AntiSpam list to be in the IMail root. How do I get the Primary back or should I leave it like it is? What will this do to the AntiSpam? Thanks, Rob  To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.htmlList Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/        To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.htmlList Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/       To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.htmlList Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/  To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.htmlList Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
