Final steps for my MS server

I don't know how you have tested so far but this is how I did it. I set
up the MS server with the correct IP and everything, fixed everything in
the firewall but didn't change the current mail flow (smart host,
mailertable) so no one used the server even though it was fully
functional. That way I could send a lot of test mail from it. I used
mailx and mpack (Solaris mail commands for text and attachments) to send
eicar, gtube and different attachments to test it all. I sent it to my
Yahoo account where I could easily see all headers. After that I changed
the mail flow to pass the server but I set everything to no to just test
if everything was working under full load without any one noticing the
new server. Finally I set the configuration I tested.
