Objet : How to scan mail going out?


Hello,
We have just set up MailScanner 4.25-10 on a Redhad Linux 9 machine. We are using Sendmail 8.12.8 and Perl 5.8.0. Currently, the flow of messages is like this:
all SMTP traffic incoming to ourdomain.com -> firewall(with rule) -> MailScanner -> Exchange 2003 server (ip: 10.10.1.2)
To make the last step happen (MailScanner->Exchange 2003), we added a line to /etc/mail/mailertable like this: ourdomain.com smtp:[10.10.1.2]
So that flow works perfectly. But now we would like to add the outgoing traffic to the mix. The Exchange 2003 server is delivering directly and not going through MailScanner. We would like mail to travel:
Exchange 2003 Server (all messages from <manysomeones>@ourdomain.com) -> MailScanner -> Recipient
We have used telnet to drop messages off to the MailScanner machine and they are delivered through the firewall just fine. But when we tell the exchange 2003 server to deliver the messages to the MailScanner, they do not get delivered although we can tell that they are getting pushed off to the MailScanner machine. We had also added a line to the relay-domains file for ourdomain.com.

You must put the IP address of your exchange server in /etc/mail/access  like this
192.168.x.x RELAY
 
Thanks for any help!
