[BlueOnyx:08648] Re: Email issue

[Chuck Tetlow]

I've seen this before.  The website is on the BlueOnyx box, and e-mail is handled by some other machine (like a yukkkk Exchange).  But the BlueOnyx server knows that domain is on it and tries to deliver it locally.  Yep - I've run into that.

Before BlueOnyx (BlueQuartz days), you had to go into the Sendmail configuration files in /etc/mail and remove all traces of the domain.  Restart Sendmail and it would work OK.  But make any modifications to that domain's settings - and you had to do it again.  Not fun.  And not easy, if you're not comfortable at the command-line.

But I believe that with the BlueOnyx - you can simply click the "Disable E-mail for Domain" checkbox and that will take care of it for you.  Look in the site setup, under the left side SERVICES, and E-MAIL.  No more having to do it at the command-line, now its in the GUI.

Let us know if that works for you.

Chuck

> I have a website that sends email from a contact form. I'm not using email on BO, it's on a different platform. This means that the website is sending mail to an address with the same domain as the website. It appears that BO is trying to deliver the email locally, as only non-local recipients ever actually get the email. How can I get BO to send the email out regardless of the domain?
