Can I have two SMTP Public IP Addresses put into the “Relay host for messages leaving the local internet domain” field in the “Basics” Tab of “Router/SMTP” in the Server Configurations in the Domino Directory.If so how is this done?. These two SMTP Public IP Addresses belong to two different service providers.
Please do advice as this is very urgent.
Appreciate your help.

To answer your question directly, if you control your DNS, you can set up a couple host (A) records for the appropriate servers. This will round robin between the addresses on each lookup. For example
outboundSMTP.yourcompany.com (A) 192.168.0.1
outboundSMTP.yourcompany.com (A) 10.0.0.1
** Note: don’t try this with a host file.
You can then use “outbound.SMTP.yourcompany.com” as the relay host on your Domino server.
