Hi All, I wonder if there is any way to implement something like Netscape's Mail Multiplexor using Sendmail or QMail or any other free MTA on Linux? The concept is this: I need to set up a free mail system that is expected to start small but eventually grow to several hundred thousand users over 18 months or so. Since the growth is uncertain, I don't want to buy a mega-server but would rather start with one smallish server and then keep adding machines as and when needed. The need is to make the configuration of the mail client as simple as possible for the users of this service. Instead of del1.vsnl.net.in, bom3.vsnl.net.in, etc. (the way VSNL does it), I'd like my users to simply type "mail.domain.com" in the server settings. So when a user checks his mail, the multiplexor (mail.domain.com) checks to see which is the home server of this user, and acts as a gateway between the user and his server. An added bonus would be improved security as the real mail server could sit behind a firewall and only the multiplexor is exposed to the internet. Any ideas? --Pawan -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Linux India Mailing List Archives are now available.
