Default [SOLVED] zmprov command confusion.

Can anyone please help me with this command?

Outgoing SMTP Authentication - Zimbra :: Wiki

Code:
zmprov ms server.domain.com zimbraMtaRelayHost external.relay.com:#
I need to understand what is server.domain.com. external.relay.com should be my ISP smtp server through which I want to relay mails on external network i.e internet. But what is server.domain.com? Is the canonical name for external.relay.com?

And if server.domain.com is my zimbra server then what is zimbraMtaRelayHost? Are both same?

server.domain.com is your MTA hostname
external.relay.com is your ISP server

All that is explained in the wiki article you've pointed to.

Thanks for your explanation. Then what is zimbraMtaRelayHost? Is it supposed to be kept that way? Or is the field that need to be edited?
I have read postfix documentation but this command is specific to zimbra and only you guys can help.
