Force local domain email out to internet

[LARyan]

We're moving all our hosted domains from Plesk 7.5 server to a new Plesk 8 server. I would like to roll out the domain DNS changes for the new server a few domains at a time. In the mean time if I've got domain1.com and domain2.com both on the new server, but I've only modified the DNS record for domain1.com pointing to the new server. If domain1.com and domain2.com were to send email to each other. The email would be directed the local copy of that domain. Which would be wrong.

How do I hide the domains that are not yet really available locally. Forcing their email to be sent out onto the internet.

Thanks,
Lee

On the domain that is not live yet, you want to disable Mail for that domain.

Thank for the confirmation. I posted my question in the middle of the night. After a few hours of sleep I thought of the same thing. duh!
