Install
Posted: 20 Oct 2017 12:40
Hi Guys
Hopefully someone here can help a relative novice with an install please. I previously used xeams and once set up worked well but there new pricing policy is just too heavy for a company of 3 people and 4 domains, having looked around I came across the efa project and I am hoping it will be a good solution. I have set up the efa server on a hyper v server on a local ip address (192.168.2.21) to filter the mail coming in from our pop collector and forward it to our main mail server (192.168.2.51) all was going well until the mail was received at the efa server when the smtp connection to our mail server was rejected and no mails could get through the efa server to our main mail server. I checked the log on the main mail server to find it was rejecting the connection because the efa server was trying to send all mail to a user root@sweetdreams.local (our local in house domain from our 2008r2 domain controller) log paste below. I have racked my brains (doesn't take long) and trawled for an answer, I expect its a set up issue somewhere I have gone wrong but I am at a dead end. Any help greatly appreciated.
