SMTP Routes in Zimbra

[abhiz]

I would like to route my zimbra server emails for domain xyz.com to my domain google apps mail server domain xyz.com is it possible.

I don't think this is a supported method but it works fine for us. You will want to use the postfix transport map feature. You would have to create a transport file (and use postmap to make it into transport.db). Syntax would be for example:

xyz.com smtp:[aspmx.l.google.com]

You would also need to change the following in main.cf within /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf
transport_maps = proxy:ldap:/opt/zimbra/onf/ldap-transport.cf
to:
transport_maps = proxy:ldap:/opt/zimbra/conf/ldap-transport.cf, hash:/opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/transport

The postfix changes will be reverted when Zimbra is updated (and I've seen it happen other times as well) so you will want to redo any postfix changes after updates and even have a script to monitor main.cf for any changes.

I highly recommend reading up on the postfix documentation for this. I'm not sure how to make it go through to multiple systems. For example, if you want it to go to either aspmx.l.google.com or alt1.aspmx.l.google.com, etc.

Do give some feedback on what errors you're seeing rather than 'it doesn't work' - the method you've been given does work.

I am not getting any error thats why I have not posted any error.

Can you make sure there are no errors in /var/log/maillog if you haven't checked that specific file?

Also - did you restart or reload postfix after making these changes? If not (as root):
/opt/zimbra/postfix/sbin/postfix reload

xyz.com smtp:[aspmx.l.google.com] this I entered in my transport file /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/transport and I restarted my zimbra services also zmcontrol stop/start.

So the 'from' domain and the 'to' domain are the same? Hmmm... Not sure how that would work then. Perhaps if you change the order of the transport maps line to put your custom transport map before the zimbra one:

transport_maps = proxy:ldap:/opt/zimbra/conf/ldap-transport.cf, hash:/opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/transport
to:
transport_maps = hash:/opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/transport, proxy:ldap:/opt/zimbra/conf/ldap-transport.cf

When we use this though its for routing domains which are NOT on our Zimbra server but I think this will work. Give it a try and let us know.

Hope, it will help.

This is already discussed in the zimbra forums elsewhere.
