Hi all,

At the moment I'm trying to migrate from Sendmail to qmail because I
would like to have a more consistent serverfarm. There is only one thing
I'm unable to fix with qmail.

I've got a couple of domains of customers who have their MX records only
pointing to our SMTP servers. Our SMTP servers just relaying their mail
to their own SMTP server. The reason for this setup is safety. A wannabe
hacker only sees our SMTP servers and not the poorly configured
Microsoft Exchange server of our customers.

In Sendmail I'm using the /etc/mail/mailertable feature like:

customer.com            relay:[192.168.1.2]

or

customer.com            relay:[mail.customer.com]

Sendmail will send the email directly to 192.168.1.2 or
mail.customer.com, regardless the MX records of those hostnames.

In qmail the only way I find out how to do it, is adding a MX record to
the DNS or using QMTP. Both solutions aren't possible as you noticed. So
I was wondering if qmail is able to do this.
