Re: How to setup incomming & outgoing mail server separately.?

I'm working on something like this but I have a third server to help me out. We have an anti-spam/anti-virus scanner (TuxGuard's TuxGuard, formatily Fort Systems DefenderMX). What I am doing to set up the SMTPout.domain.com server:
1) configure the domain and go into "Relay"
2) instead of dovecot, I put in my AS/AV server like this:
   smtp:[dfmx03.domain.com]:25
3) the dfmx03.domain.com has a routing table that points email for domain.com to incoming.domain.com

smtpout.domain.com is a mirror image of incoming.domain.com except for that relay. The downside is changes have to be made to both servers when a new account is created or deleted.
