Receive e-mail from other domains

Greetings all,

I just posted a message about this on the lumtech listserv. We are trying to set up the iPlanet messenger so we can receive e-mail from other domain names. For instance, we are currently receiving e-mail with @myschool.edu . We would also like to receive e-mail that is @mysubdomain.myschool.edu.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this?

We are currently on Luminis IV.1, patch 15 and 6.3 of the iPlanet Messaging server.

--Thanks!

modify the imta.cnf

you need to modify the imta.cnf. In the domain.rules add your new domain:

! !
! Rules to select local users
$* $A$E$F$U%$H$V$H@yourserver.myschool.edu
yourserver.myschool.edu $U%$D@yourserver.myschool.edu
myschool.edu $U%$D@yourserver.myschool.edu
mysubdomain.myschool.edu $U%myschool.edu@myserver.myschool.edu

Run the following commands

./imsimta cnbuild
./imsimta restart

Make sure your spam filters and mx records are set for that domain.

Thanks

Thanks for the response. We were unable to get it to work with this change. We have decided to route the e-mail to our mail gateway and have it rewrite the headers to make the mail system deliver the e-mail properly. We did this by editing the imta.cnf file and removing "mx" from the line that starts with "tcp_local" and adding "daemon", and the fqdn of our mail gateway to the end of that line:

tcp_local smtp single_sys remotehost inner switchchannel identnonenumeric subdirs 20 maxjobs 7 pool SMTP_POOL maytlsserver maysaslserver saslswitchchannel tcp_auth missingrecipientpolicy 0 daemon smtp.myschool.edu

Thanks again and have a nice day!
