Just to make sure I understand this:
If Smart Delivery is OFF: When a message fails during Post delivery, the
post server connects with the smtp server and sends a message to the failto=
address. This will get processed normally, creating a file if the result of
rcpt is "result=accept", and error handling can be done in data.
If Smart Delivery is ON: When a message fails during Post delivery, no smtp
connection is made, the smart template (data.cfm by default) is called with
all the same info as if it had gotten there via the smtp server, with the
smtpto address set to the failto= address.
Is this correct?
Also, smart delivery is triggered by local IP's, right? Or local domains?
