Mails for some users to be routed to some other MTA

 - This is archive documentation, which means it is not supported or valid for recent versions of Zimbra Collaboration.

1. The default setting in zimbra is : -

[zimbra@toi-store ~]$ postconf -n | grep -i transport_maps transport_maps = proxy:ldap:/opt/zimbra/conf/ldap-transport.cf

2. The user information is lookedup in ldap by default. Create a transport file ( as a zimbra user ) with user informaion whose mails needs to be routed to some other mta.

[zimbra@toi-store conf]$ pwd /opt/zimbra/conf

[zimbra@toi-store conf]$ cat transport_file test1@in.zimbra.com smtp:[10.66.118.238]

3. postmap /opt/zimbra/conf/transport_file ( creates a Hash file )

4. Add the entry to already existing postfix_transport_maps as below : -

[zimbra@toi-store ~]$ zmlocalconfig -e 'postfix_transport_maps=hash:/opt/zimbra/conf/transport_file,proxy:ldap:${zimbra_home}/conf/ldap-transport.cf'

[zimbra@toi-store ~]$ zmlocalconfig | grep -i transport postfix_transport_maps = hash:/opt/zimbra/conf/transport_file,proxy:ldap:${zimbra_home}/conf/ldap-transport.cf postfix_virtual_transport = error

5. Restart the mta service: -

zmmtactl restart
