Re: Configuring the SMTP server as a relay server

I use this on my i every day.  Check the ALWRLY parameter on the CHGSMTPA.  If it is set to *NONE, then no relay can happen, but don't arbitrarily change it to *ALL.  Best to use the *LIST setting and then set up a relay list.

Quoting Nathan Andelin <nandelin@xxxxxxxxx>:

Incorrect.  You can configure the i's SMTP server to deliver mail
itself or to relay to another server.

I'm starting a new thread because configuring the SMTP as a relay is  only a tangent to Paul's text message concerns. I looked at the SMTP  properties in System i Navigator and could not figure out how to set  up the server as a "relay".

Could you share how to do it?

I'm aware of various email interfaces that enable folks to bypass  the IBM i SMTP server altogether, and relay at will, but how do you  configure IBM i SMTP to relay?

Thanks,

-Nathan
