Hi to all,

I have an xmail running with a domain an working fine. The server is configured to relay mails with my ISP smtp server because I'm in a ADSL line often blacklisted by reverse DNS or other protection.

Well, all is running well at moment. But now I want to xmail act as a mail gateway for other domain holded by my ISP. My clients (outlooks) have 2 pop3 accounts, let say acc@domain_a.biz and acc@domain_b.biz. I have setup smtp server of domain_b to xmail so all email sent is across xmail. POP3 server remains to pop.domain_b.biz

My local domain is domain_a.biz so mails are sending/receiving ok. So I tried to setup xmail with domain_b with no luck.

Actually I have this:

domain_a hosted by xmail
domain_b hosted by ISP

Reviewing docs, I think the clue is to set a custom domain and doing smtprelay. So in my custdomains directory I have a file named domain_b.biz.tab with:
"smtprelay"[TAB]"smtp.domain_b.biz"

smtprelay.tab, smtpgw.tab are blank and smtpfwd.tab there is a line with:
*[TAB]smtp.ISP.biz (without doubled cuotes)

So here are the results:

Send mail from domain_a to/from domain_b is ok
Send mail from domain_a to hotmail is ok
Send mail from domain_b to hotmail get "Relay denied"

Can someone get me a hand with this?

PD: Sorry about my poor english

After many tries with different configurations I discovered the main problem.

In server.tab I have set EnableAuthSNMTP-POP3 to "1".

Well, this is because domain_a is set this option to avoid open relay problems. But If I want to send an email at ISP domain, said "relay denied". Of course!, my ISP relay not have this auth enabled!! this was the trick.

So my last question is..It is possible enable this option at domain level?
