Understanding Message Transfer
between Domains and Post
Offices
A domain organizes post offices into a logical grouping for addressing, routing, and administration
purposes in your GroupWise
®
system. Messages are transferred between post offices and domains
by the Message Transfer Agent (MTA). The following topics help you understand domains and the
functions of the MTA:
Section 40.1, “Domain Representation in ConsoleOne,” on page 605
Section 40.2, “Domain Directory Structure,” on page 606
Section 40.3, “Information Stored in the Domain,” on page 606
Section 40.4, “Role of the Message Transfer Agent,” on page 608
Section 40.5, “Link Configuration between Domains and Post Offices,” on page 608
Section 40.6, “Message Flow between Domains and Post Offices,” on page 608
Section 40.7, “Cross-Platform Issues between Domains and Post Offices,” on page 609
40.1 Domain Representation in ConsoleOne
In ConsoleOne
®
, domains are container objects that contain an MTA object, as well as other
domain-related objects, as shown below:
Figure 40-1
ConsoleOne View Showing the MTA Object
Although each post office is linked to a domain, it does not display as subordinate to the domain in
the Console View. However, using the GroupWise View, you can display post offices as subordinate
to the domains to which they are linked in your GroupWise system.
