Fallback issues
Hi, I'd like to configure this kind of funcionality. I have 1 postfix box, which should relay mails to 1 of 2 internal mail servers(192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2). When 1 internal mail server crashes, new incoming mails should be automatically send to another internal mail server. I don't want to use MX lookup. I tried this configuration: in transport file example.com :[192.168.1.1] .example.com :[192.168.1.2] but without success. Another attempt in main.cf I specified relayhost = [192.168.1.1] in transport file example.com :[192.168.1.2] again,no success. Could you please write me the right configuration of fallback without MX lookup? Many thanks, Vladislav

This always produces [192.168.1.1] for example.com, and always produces [192.168.1.2] for stuff.example.com. Wietse

Thank you for reply, but my version of postfix is 2.2.

Re: Fallback issues
Hello, I switch transport_maps of from main.cf. Next I insert fallback_relay = [192.168.1.1], [192.168.1.2] but I can see in logs, that postfix still find MX and don't use specified hosts.
