[SOLVED] How can I relay ALL mails (even internal ones)

[adeelarifbhatti]

HI all,


Make use of the file /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/transport
Once configured it you have to make the hash format of it i.e. postmap /location/transport.db not so sure if this can be done by zimbra it self.
And in the main file you also have to make the perameter set to make the mta use of transport.db.


You may have to define the following in the transport table.
domain1.com smtp:[192.168.50.1]
domain2.com smtp:[192.168.50.2]

The word smtp will not make the mta to use the DNS to check for the DNS record and will relay the mails to the gateway defined.
And please remember most of the things done by the GUI, doesn't make thing to work properly. I believe much on the file level rather than GUI

did you try this :-

An example
------------
zmprov ga test1@test.com | grep -i transport
zimbraMailTransport: lmtp:toi-store.in.zimbra.com:7025
to
zimbraMailTransport: smtp:relayserver:25

Hi Veronica,
this approach worked fine. Thanks!
The transport can be set on a per account basis by doing

zmprov ma test1@test.com zimbraMailTransport smtp:relayserver:25

Is there a possible way that this could be done for ALL users without modifying zimbraMailTransport for each ?

Tried to do the following:
zmprov md example.com zimbraMailTransport example2.com

But with this type of configuration email will only be relayed to example2.com when local user does not exist. In my scenario -I know its really ugly- we need to relay ALL mails, even local ones, to example2.com.

Any ideas ?

Are you possibly talking about Split Domain - Zimbra :: Wiki?

[ElMoRsA]

Nope... I've read that document (and a lottt more! :P ), but that's not what we are needing.

We have a very weird mail platform where external domain is converted via LDAP to an internal domain (and goes through 1: Ironport 2: Postfix MTA with virtual talbes@LDAP who acts as a delivery "boy" and 3: server who does have the mailboxes and belongs to an internal domain name).

In order to migrate to Zimbra we need to coexist those platforms, but as I'm pruning that ugly internal domain thing we are installing Zimbra with our external domain as our primary domain and the internal one as an alias. As for testing purposes I'm also creating and syncronizing all our users database from our LDAP to Zimbra i've ALL users created at Zimbra server's.

This behavior makes all mails comming out from Zimbra deliver to Zimbra itself even when the user isn't already migrated. In order to avoid that we need all mailing to be going out of Zimbra servers and go to server "2" (delivery boy ) who actually knows where the mail box is via our own LDAP.

Yeah, I'm sure it will be hard to understand, sorry!

Following post on [SOLVED] relay all e-mail even local solved the issue =)

Sorry for the 3rd post, but news are here.

Following the post I've mentioned before made all mail FROM WEBMAIL to relay, but not from SMTP. Whenever I send an email from Thunderbird/Outlook the email doesn't get relayed :'(.

Any clues ?
