Don't want send E-Mails local to two users of Mercury

You could also set a forward file in the 2 users dir to forward to an external address (e.g. gmail).

This would avoid having to manually maintain a lot of aliases .

Hello,

this is my first post here. I configurated Mercury/32 (version 4.61) yesterday for 10 users and everthing is working fine. All users can send and receive local E-Mails and E-Mails from outside.

Today i added two more users. This two people are working outside the office and can not connect to the Mercury server in the moment.

How can i manage, that E-Mails to this users will not send local?

They use the same domain as the users in the office. The domain is entered in the Mercury core module. 

Sorry for my bad english :-(((

 

 

best regards

Michael

You cannot have two servers processing mail for the same domain.  You'll have to use a different domain for the Mercury/32 setup and then alias all of the local users to this local domain.  For example, if your domain is domain.com enter local.domain.com in the domains list instead of domain.com.  You then alias each local user from user@domain.com to user@local.domain.com.  Now when the mail is sent to the two users in domain.com that are not on the local server it gets sent off server.
