switching outgoing mail server?

Post by kevincabritit »

We have Mailenable pro 8.5 installed on our server and works fine. We also have couple domains that we manage for client mailboxes as well.

One of you clients have moved to Office 365 and wants all local mails from the mail server to send to their new inboxes. I have changed their DNS records for the domain to the new office365 as requested by them.

To achieve this, would it be just to suspend the domain and disable all the mailboxes from mailenabled client, and it will automatically forward the emails to office 365 (via the DNS records)?

What are the correct steps to achieve this?

After doing some research, to achieve this we need to mark the domain post office as smarthost.

I marked the setting for smart host for that domain only. I didnt mark it on the SMTP connector as i dont want it to do it for all others domains as their mail boxes are still on the local server.

Did you have to add the the IP address or domain for office 365 to relay?
like "statecinema.com.au.pri-mx.ap0107.smtproutes.com"?

Im not sure if its sending or not the office 365 account

Logs seems to indicate the relay is working fine.
