We are running SM as a gateway spam filter that forwards to another SM server. When a mailbox or domain is "full" on the primary mail server and is not receiving mail, where do the non delivery messages go when the gateway forwards them? In other words, if there was no gateway between the sender...

I do have a problem seeing the difference between gateway and smarthost servers. Which oneis the incoming, and which one is the outgoing SMTP server? What is the recommended configuration, when SmarterMail acts as a backend mail server in the LAN network and a different smtp server runs as a SMTP server...

The export utility "smailusr" has now been tested and found compatible with SmarterMail versions 3.x, 4.x and 5.x. The utility exports a list of valid users, aliases and mailing list addresses for all SmarterMail domains and domain aliases on a single server. SM's Plus addressing is supported...

It would seem that this is still a problem for this scenario as I've just hit it :( If your SmarterMail server usually sends out via a gateway server, then the SmartHost feature needs to be able to be told to ignore the gateway when attempting to redeliver the mail. Otherwise, as Demps wrote back...

I was running SM 3.5 without issue sending mail out from my SM server to Postini as a gateway server. In 3.X, the outbound gateway was set via Protocol Settings - SMTP Out - Gateway Server. I had this set to outbound5.obsmtp.com, and it worked fine for the past couple years. But after I upgraded to SM5...

Hi, I would like to setup an incoming gateway in front of an SM4 box. Purpose is for AV and AS. I'm confused over whether the incoming gateway should use domain forwarding, or smarthost function (of SmarterMail). Also I can't seem to find information on pricing if I were to use SM4 for incoming...

On the surface this could appear simply to be a DNS related issue but DNS is OK and yet our clients simply can not reliably deliver - the session simply times out - at MailWise - specifically at the load balancers that sit in front of the mail servers. My own mail traffic with one of the recipients ...

What is the recommended setup in SmarterMail if you run SMTP Gateways for customers and need to scrub messages of spam and viruses before sending the good mail down? I operate Imail + Declude + Sniffer environments and have lots of customers for which we successfully do this for (particular small businesses...

Hello SM community, and Merry Christmas to ALL ! I am setting up a SM front end (gateway) server to handle all the ugly filtering and antispam duties. On the backend server (SM Mailboxes), there is a gateway option, which is obvious enough. However, there is also a SmarterMail URL field, and little documentation...

We have an freebsd/postfix(imgate) machine infront of our smartermail so that it would help manage the incoming load. I currently have my gateway server whitelisted on SmarterMail, this is causing all the mail to pass through without any of the RBL/SpamAssasin/Baysian checking the incoming mail. How...
