28CHAPTER 2: CONFIGURING MAIL DELIVERY

Virtual Mappings

Virtual Mappings are used to redirect mail addressed for one domain to a

 

different domain. This process is performed without modifying the To:

 

and From: headers in the mail, as virtual mappings modify the

 

envelope-recipient address.

 

For example, the 3Com Email Firewall can be configured to accept mail

 

for example.com and deliver it to example2.com. This allows the 3Com

 

Email Firewall to distribute mail to multiple internal servers based on the

 

Recipient: address of the incoming mail.

 

Virtual Mappings are useful for acting as a wildcard mail mapping, such

 

as mail for example.com is sent to exchange.example.com.

 

Select Mail Delivery -> Virtual Mappings to configure your mappings.

Click the Add Virtual Mapping button to add a new mapping.

Input — Enter the domain or address to which incoming mail is directed in the Input box.

Output — Enter the domain or address to which mail should be redirected to in the Output box.
