Hi,

I'm new to mail gateway. Plan to use mail gateway to filter every in and out messages.

Would like to confirm, is the following configuration correct? or change default relay and smarthost to IP address? Relay Domains is "site1.abc.com".
Do I need to set "Transports" for this?

Thank you in advance
 
smarthost is meant for outgoing mail - so I guess you want to set that to wall.abc.com?

mail for all domains you have entered in relay domains is sent to:
* the host defined in the transport entry for that domain (if you have created one ) - else
* to the default relay (if you've set one)
* to the MX set for the domain (or if no MX to the A/AAAA record)

I hope this explains it!
