RE: How to disable local delivery of mail -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Please let us know the name of your AS/400 and the name of your domain?
Your MX record should point to your new mail server and have a name such
as mail.domain.com where domain.com is your mail. The IP of that MX
record should point to the public IP of the server hosting your mail.
Now you need to remove all internal references to mail.domain.com on
your network, DNS and local host tables.

Hopefully you did not call your AS/400 domain.com.

Please send us what you can on your configuration.

Subject: How to disable local delivery of mail

Hi

We have moved email services from our AS/400 to Google Apps Premier
Edition.
Everything is working great.

I would like to continue sending programmatic emails on the AS/400 to
our users. I can't get the system to stop delivering email locally. I
want the AS/400 to deliver email to the servers specified in the MX
records.

I've contacted IBM and they said there is no way to disable local
delivery as long as the IP address for our domain name points to the
AS/400. I can't change that.

Is there any way to disable local email delivery in the AS/400 SMTP
settings?
