Posted by: kfj Aug 2 2007, 11:38 AM

We got some new IP-adresses for our server. Now X-mail always takes one of the new, for which we are still planning. As we have no DNS PTR record configured so far, some mails fail.

I tried to change the command line in the registry
-Mr 24 -Pl -PI XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:110 -PI XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:110 -Sl -SI XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:25 -SI XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:25 -Sr 200 -Cl

(There are 2 differemt IP-Adresses, because the server has 2 identities...)

But this takes no effect. Do I have to do something somewhere else to always use these IP-adresses with X-Mail?

Thanks for your help!

- Stop XMail
- Install the latest 1.25 pre release:
http://xmailforum.homelinux.net/index.php?showtopic=3852
- Enter this in your server.tab:
"SmtpConfig" "Outbind=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX"
- Start XMail

1.24 has the new Outbind feature too, but unfortunately with a bug.
