Ironport - Incoming and Outgoing relay

[hskal1986]

Hi,

for my understanding:

1) incoming mails and outgoing mails will be classified by the HAT

2) HAT entry with relay decision classifies as "outgoing"

Now my problem:

i am using the same relay server for incoming and outgoing messages. So, my ironport gets the messages for both direction from the same device.

Question:

does anybody see a solution to do so? at the moment all messages will be classified as incoming or outgoing (depends what is configured in HAT). Anybody using the same relay for both directions before?

Hi Asffe,

You a can have an single HAT for outbound and inbound email. At the top of the HAT you must have the a "RELAY"" action specifing the internal email server. When the traffic comes inbound it should hit any of the other entries on the HAT depending of what type of email it is.

Take a look to the deployment guide.

i suggest do not select relay action for incoming emails.That way your ESA act like a open relay that is dangerous.The Best option is to configure RAT table or enable SMTP call ahead service for that matter.
