    Greylisting won't help you because the spammers can just dump their mail onto your backup MX which will then happily relay it on to you from both a trusted and persistent (genuine) mailer and address.   It's unlikely that a UK ISP would neglect to provide an outgoing smarthost (SMTP/submission) server.  But yes, MercuryE is the module ...

  • Re: A true beginner needs help

    Thanks for your help.   As I said I'm a bit slow. What is?  Add as local domain both the IP: [192.168.1.100] and f.ex. myhomenetwork.local if you care to use neater email aliases.

  • Re: helped needed for novice

    yravi: Our institution has 2 mail servers on different domains maintained by 2 ISP's across the globe. Email is routed based on mx-pointers within the dns. For your two domains, the mx-pointers either go to you ISP or to your XP machine. If the mx-pointers point to your XP-machine all e-mails will be delivered to it, and received by ...

  • Re: Mercury/32 Configuring local email users

    If it is a local installation there is little need to use a domain mailbox. Add local users, then their aliases. To a local user you can receive whatever addresses.Just like: papa@papa.com == mailbox1and papa@mama.com == mailbox1 Your colleagues then receive their email via pop3, utilizing module MercuryP, from their respective ...
