What are you currently using in mailertable to get there? If you use [domain] and go to the A record of the same name it might be a problem
- but that might work if you try it. Where I've used it, the delivery
hosts had their own names that they'd accept in the envelope and the [IP.address] form would also work.
Currently I have this in the mailertable: domain(1).com smtp:smtp2.differentdomain.com domain(2).com smtp:smtp2.differentdomain.com ... Domain(n).com smtp:smtp2.differentdomain.com
I think that I'm going to have to test this out and see what happens.
I think it should work to put the smtp2.differentdomain.com in the virtusrtable target as long as the destination accepts that as a local name - and you'd have to go out of your way to avoid it if it is the real hostname or reverse DNS name for the interface.
Thanks for your help Les, I'll test it all I think and see what happens.
