Hello, We are looking to have mail traffic to-and-from one of our main vendors bypass the internet and go through a private link. The link is already set up and we pass non-SMTP traffic back and forth all the time, but given some issues we've had, we'd like to just bypass the internet all together for SMTP. Using E2K3, what would be the best way to accomplish this? Given that we currently make use of a DNS MX record over the internet, would there need to be anything set up DNS-wise? Also, what would need to be set up in ESM to facilitate this? Thanks!

You can then set it up to deliver mail for the domain you want to redirect. Set this domain up in the address space tab. Set up the IP address in the smart host field on the general tab as the IP for the mail server across the point-to-point connection. Give this a try and let me know how it works for you. Thanks, Rick
