RE: [cobalt-users] SPAM and AV filtering on a per-domain basis vi a two servers?

["Cook, James" <jcook@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The only point that I have a question about is #6: how do I make the RaQ4
server listed as the high priority MX receiver for a domain forward the mail
to the lower priority server once it has scanned the mail, so that it ends
up in the user mailboxes?

Any ideas?

We actually just implemented what you are talking about but not with RaQs.

We have 3 mail servers, 2 SMTP and one POP3. One SMTP server scans e-mail
for spam and the other doesn't. In each server we have SMTP routes built to
the POP3 server for domains with mail hosted there. When a customer turns on
spam filtering the MX record for their domain is updated to the spam
filtering server's host name and vice versa.

We don't host e-mail on our RaQs but I don't see why you couldn't add smtp
routes to your RaQ4 to send the mail to the RaQ3. I don't know the details
on how to do this with sendmail.
