1765.0. "mail setup on mailgate ???" by DEKVC::SUNJOOHA (SUN-JOO HA @DEK) Tue Feb 04 1997 07:09

    Hello ?
    
    I found that lots of notes file regarding mail but most of them are
    gatekeeper's mail configuration not mailgate.
    Now I'm experiencing that I cannot configure for mailgate to relay to
    gatekeeper system. 
    The  mailgate is a
    	bind client of gatekeeper, external name server and have no problem
    with resolving addresses. 
    
    In mailsetup, I configured gatekeeper as general relay.
    But when I try to send mail with verification, mailgate try to connect
    to destination directly not gatekeeper of the firewall.
    
    I reconfigured mail several times but no success.
    If I do the same work (mailsetup) in another host, it works fine.
    The mail server is Digital UNIX v3.2D and used as mail server before
    installing firewall.
    
    I want to reconfigure it to pass mail message to gatekeeper.
    If I setup the mailgate clean, what files can I delete ?
    What files is related to the general relay of mail ?
    
    Hope your answer .
    Best regards,
    Sunjoo Ha.

1765.1general relay in mailsetup ?DEKVC::SUNJOOHASUN-JOO HA @DEKTue Feb 11 1997 21:5718
    Hi!, anyone who can give me a hand!
    
    Still I'm in trouble. From mail server machine, the mailsetup works
    different from other machine. From other machine, setting general relay
    in mailsetup, it finds DNS name server automatically for general relay
    for cuk.ac.kr domain. But for mailserver that has problem, it finds
    ns.kren.nm.kr as general relay for ac.kr. I answered the firewall
    system (cmckeeper.cuk.ac.kr) as general relay. But when I send mail by
    Mail -v [email protected], it tries to connect
    gatekeeper.digital.co.kr which is external node. I expected to connect
    cmckeeper.cuk.ac.kr. 
    Is it smtp bug in Digital UNIX v3.2D ?
    What does the mail server do when it suggest general relay for the
    domain ?
    
    Hope any suggestion please.
    Best regards,

1765.2smtp bug in v3.2d ...DEKVC::SUNJOOHASUN-JOO HA @DEKWed Feb 12 1997 23:326
    Hello ?
    Still no answer.
    I solved my probem. I think it's smtp bug in digital unix v3.2d.
    I upgraded to v4.0a and all settled down.
