Re: Unknown recepient forward to another ISP server

You can create a catch-all account, then all emails sent to non-existing addresses under your domain will be delivered to this catch-all account. For example:

1) Create a new mail user 'abc@your_domain.com', and set its per-user transport/relay to your ISP server.
2) Assign this new mail user as catch-all account of your domain.

Thank you very much Zhnag:-)
Appreciate your solution.

I'm a system administrator and this is the 1st time I'm configuring mail server locally. I completely tested all configuration and its working fine;-) &  I use fetchmail to fetch emails from our ISP server to local users.

I appreciate if you send the configuration for 
1) Create a new mail user 'abc@your_domain.com', and set its per-user transport/relay to your ISP server.
2) Assign this new mail user as catch-all account of your domain.

Since i have very less time to make this server up because we are using a trail period application for the email server & it is going to expire in tomo.

Thanks in advance.

regards,
Shaik

You can create a new mail user with iRedAdmin (either open source edition or iRedAdmin-Pro).

*) If you're running iRedAdmin-Pro, please go to profile page of this user, then you can set per-user transport/relay under tab "Relay".

*) If you're running iRedAdmin open source edition, you have to set per-user transport/relay with SQL/LDAP command line tool or web applications like phpMyAdmin, phpLDAPadmin.

Sample transport/relay setting is:

smtp:[IP_of_your_ISP_server]:25

*) If you don't have iRedAdmin-Pro, you have to add catch-all account manually. Searching our wiki site will give you detailed tutorial:
