Problem with incoming mail and routing to other servers (VERY IMPORTANT)

Hi

I have 3 servers

  1. Domino ServerA, serve abc.com Internet domain

(100 accounts)

  1. Linux, serve abc.com Internet domain (200 acconts)

  2. Domino ServerB, serve xyz.com Internet domain

Situation:

Domino servers uses Directory Assistance.

Domino SerevrA is a mail gateway to/from Internet.

One account is office@abc.com (at Linux), second is office@xyz.com (at Domino ServerB).

Configuration document at ServerA point to Smart host (linux for abc.com non-Notes users).

Now, when incoming mail from Internet is addressed to office@abc.com - mail is routed to ServerB and is stored in office@xyz.com mailbox!!!

Is this good???

ServerB not serve domain abc.com and working in another company (and another Notes Domain)!!!

User Office from xyz.com can’t read (it is private) mail of office@abc.com!!!

In my opinion, it is a VERY BUG.

ServerB not serve abc.com domain, mail CAN NOT be routed to ServerB.

Have you tryed this in server’s configuration document “Router / SMTP” / “Basic” Tab :

Address lookup:

Fullname only *

Exhaustive lookup:

Enabled

  • => will return exact email only,

if this value is set to “Fullname then Local Part” you may have some surprises (if you have a user “joe smith” and the email address is joe.smith@abcde.com you can use also joe@abcde.com, smith@abcde.com etc…).

I assume you have more then one internet domains?

hope this helps…
