Topic: Disable local delivery, only send email, remote mail server

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): 0.9.8
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 16.04
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MariaDB
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): NGinx
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro? No
====

How do I disable local mail delivery? I want to use my iredadmin server only for sending emails for my domain, not receiving. Receiving is done on another server I have that is already setup.

With SQL backend, you can set value of sql columns in "vmail" database to 0:

- mailbox.enabledeliver

Re: Disable local delivery, only send email, remote mail server

Did you get this working?

I am trying to setup exactly the same thing, a "send out-only" server.


When sending emails with people from the domain in copy, server attempts to deliver locally instead of also sending out.

If I am using mydomain.com. and sending the following message.

FROM: myself@mydomain.com
TO: someone@theirdomain.com, someoneelse@mydomain.com

Email fails trying to deliver someelse@mydomain.com locally.
