This feature is available with artica version 1.4.021217

If you are under this release you need to upgrade your Artica version.
If this version is not released use the How to upgrade Artica to a nightly build ?

This feature will help you to manage severals SMTP servers that handle the same SMTP domain and allow them to route messages internally.

The goal is to use an internal table that match user's mails with server name.

Each Artica server will be in charge of synchronizing (each 2 hours) the target smtp server database locally  in the LDAP server.
The postfix main system is set to understand the new generated table and route messages.

The synchronize operation can be executed manually by this command line:

php5 /usr/share/artica-postfix/exec.smtp.export.users.php --sync --verbose

To add a new server :

  • On the left menu, click on messaging link
  • Select Routing & Network tab
  • On the front-end click on SMTP Routing table
  • Click on "Remote Artica SMTP Synchronization" icon

 

On the Remote Artica SMTP synchronization click on New Artica Remote Server.

  • Give the he target SMTP server IP address or server name.
  • Give the SSL port (https) for the Web Artica administration Interface (9000 by default).
  • Give the system Admin username and password  (the user name is Manager or admin by default) that have privileges to connect to the Artica web console

 

When saving the form, Artica will perform the synchronizing operation immediately
