Re: How to make autoturn work?

I have a similar setup for a customer. I just set up smtproutes and had the 
qmail box send mail to the Exchange server instead using smtp transport. 
Much, much easier and the nice thing is the fact that you don't need to make 
any changes on the Exchange box to make this work.

Take your domain name out of /var/qmail/control/local file. Make sure it is 
listed in /var/qmail/control/rcphosts and add 
"<domainname>:<ip_address_of_exchange_box>". That's it!!!! Piece of cake.

You will only want to use serialmail if mail sits at the ISP first and the 
Internet link is "expensive". Doesn't sound like you have such a setup.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Alhagie.
