Hi everyone,
I’m having an issue with a new install of 8.0.2 were the Domino server is ignoring my Foreign SMTP Document and sending via the MX record resolved in DNS.
Thanks!
Subject: RouterIgnoreForeignSMTPDomains=1
I know it is a old thread but I have just had the same issue.
Look for RouterIgnoreForeignSMTPDomains=1 in you notes.ini
Explanation:
Ignores the multiple relay support that utilized Foreign SMTP Domain documents.
(This maintains pre-5.0.3 behavior, ignoring the Foreign SMTP Domain feature added in 5.0.3.)
RouterIgnoreForeignSMTPDomains=1 (on) → Revert to pre-R5.03 behavior. Foreign SMTP Domain documents will be used only if SMTP external is disabled in the Server Configuration document or as a last chance effort if we cannot find a route to the destination RouterIgnoreForeignSMTPDomains=0 (off) or variable is not specified in the notes.ini file → Default R5.03+ behavior. Router will now use Foreign SMTP Domain documents when determining a route to the destination domain. This allows customers to specify a “relay” per Internet destination.
Note: If the corresponding SMTP connection record does not contain a relay host, the router will check to see if there is a relay specified in the server’s Server Configuration document, otherwise the source server of the SMTP connection record will use DNS to resolve the next hop (traditional SMTP routing algorithm)
Note: This change will affect only customers with an R5.x server with SMTP External enabled and Foreign SMTP Domain documents in the Domino Directory who got used to R5’s behavior.
