Importing local domains and email addresses
Lists of local domain definitions and email addresses can be imported from a
US-ASCII file, similar to the Sendmail
mailertable
. In the import file, place
each domain definition on a line by itself. The domain definition consists of the
following:
■
Domain Name—Can be either a complete domain name, a subdomain name,
or an email address.
■
Destination—Consists of destination type and destination host name. Only
definitions with a destination type (Mailer) of SMTP or ESMTP are
supported, and %backreferences are not supported. After import, ESMTP
destination types convert to SMTP. When the host name is enclosed in
brackets—smtp:[destination.domain.com]—MX lookup is not performed for
the destination host.
Here is a sample import file:
local1@domain.com smtp:local1.com
local2@domain.com smtp:local2.com:20
local3@domain.com smtp:[local3.com]:30
local4@domain.com smtp:[local4.com]
.local5.com smtp:[192.168.248.105]
local6.com smtp:[192.168.248.106]:60
To import a list of local domains
1 In the Control Center, click Settings > Local Domains .
2 Click Import .
3 On the Import Local Domains page, enter or browse to the file containing
the list of domain definitions.
4 Click Import .
Note: If entries in the import file do not match the required file format, you
can download a file containing the unprocessed entries.
