Re: Sneaker net between mail servers with MailTools?

Without knowing the whole setup little can be said. Which side sends, which side receives? What MTA is running on the mail server with internet connectivity? does it support TLS/SSL? Where is the box that doesn't? behind a firewall? which ports are open? or dialup? and so on...

--shmem

Hi shmem,

I guess I could describe the setup as a "sneaker" net between the mail clients (I hope I am using the correct terminology) Outlook, Evolution, mailx etc. sending mail to an email server (sendmail) on thier LAN. This LAN is completely isolated except for a "sneaker net" (me and my 1974 Pacer). Would gather the emails sent by my isolated clients from the isolated email server and place them on a CD then take that CD to the connected email server where the users' email can be sent to recipients that are not located on the isolated LAN. While I was loading those out going emails I would need to bring back incoming emails. I would then load these incoming email on the isolated email server which would deliver them to my isolated users.

Does that make any sense?
