Hi Guys. Theres a situation with the smtp proxy and Astaro's notification system.
Our users collect their email from individual POP3 boxes at the headoffice in Germany, say carl@ourcompany.co.uk
So everybodies email addresses are remote POP3 boxes. Astaro is replying with Delay Notifications as "notify@firewall.ourcompany.co.uk", but the MX for ourcompany.co.uk says "Sender domain must exist". (because firewall.ourcompany.co.uk is not a valid domain).
I tried to get around this by (a) setting ASL hostname to localhost (the MX accepts this, but ASL says its invalid), (b) setting ASL hostname to just ourcompany.co.uk, but then all email addressed to collegeues goes into the local qmail-system instead of over to germany.
I think there needs to be a Hostname & Domain-name config option. Or at least "e-mail domain to use for notifications, etc", to solve the problem.
This really is quite important. Do you understand what I'm trying to say ?
Thanks,
Carl
