SMTPROUTES - Domain Mail Forwarding

[zockerjosy]

Hello community

I want to forward all Mails of one domain to an external Mailserver (Exchange). Plesk 8.3 (debian)

--> Input Kaspersky AntiSPAM -> QMAIL (Plesk) -> forwarding to a different mail server

There is a configuration file /var/qmail/smtproutes where you could be. How can I do that for a complete domain (* @ mydomain.com)? what is todo?

Thank You & Greetings,

Andy

You need to first make sure mail is disabled in Plesk for the domain on the server, if it isn't plesk will still try to deliver mail locally. Next make sure the domain is listed in /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts, this configures qmail to accept mail for the domain, and last you create the routes for the domain to the new server in /var/qmail/control/smtproutes. Like this:

domain.com:10.11.12.13

Once youve done this, just restart xinetd (/etc/init.d/xinetd restart) and youre done

Thank you for your quick response!

Now I have the problem if an e-mail from outside is received, the server is a relayserver, so the mail is blocked.

Example:

~ $ telnet pleskserver.com 25
Trying 194.xxx.xx.xx ...
Connected to pleskserver.com
Escape character is'^]'.
220 xyz.pleskserver.com ESMTP
Helo
250 pleskserver.com
mail from: [email protected]
250 OK
rcpt to: [email protected]
553 sorry, that domain is not in my list of allowed rcpthosts (# 5.7.1)

Greetings,

Andy

I really wasnt kidding when I said it needed to be in rcpthosts.

I have the same goal. Thanks for your advice.
But how do I disable the mail for a given domain?
Many thanks.

If you look at the domain settings in plesk, you can turn mail on/off
