I have a SCO host "sco" in a domain "company.co.uk". I wish to send mail outbound using the host "nt" in the same lan. (nt runs exchange). I wish outgoing mails to originate from user@company.co.uk, not user@sco.company.co.uk. Most users in company.co.uk do not have accounts on sco but use nt for mail. I have smtp to nt as the channel for badhosts and badusers.
The mmdftailor file has
MLDOMAIN = "co.uk"
MLHOST = "company"
MLOCMACHINE = "sco"
which seems to be the (horrible) way to achieve the correct from-address.
This works fine when sending to someuser@otherdomain but not when I send to otheruser@company.co.uk. mmdf sends this to nt as I want, but in doing so strips off the whole of @company.co.uk, presumably because it thinks it is sending to itself. So the mail goes to nt with RCPT_TO: otheruser. Exchange accepts the mail but later treats the address as an error because it is missing the domain suffix that it wants for inbound mail.
So, how do I stop mmdf from stripping the @company.co.uk suffix? I really want all mail to @company.co.uk to go to nt (with no modification to the from or to address) and only mail addressed without an @domain to be delivered locally to sco. I've already tried specifying "same" for address rewriting on all channels.
