Be sure that you provide the hostname or IP address of your mailhost(s) to
Support so that the data center can be configured to send email directly to your
organization.
Figure 2-1 Mail Routing with MessageLabs
Mail Routing Inbound—Store and Forward
If your primary mail system has gone down, and your organization has not
activated Email Continuity, MessageLabs performs a store and forward service
and attempts to deliver your mail.
Similarly, if your organization performs a partial activation, this feature allows you
to designate hostnames to use to deliver mail to users who are not active on Email
Continuity.
To configure email routing for inbound mail, see "
Routing for Forwarded Mail" on
page 146
Figure 2-2 Routing for Inbound (Forwarded) Mail
1. Configure MessageLabs to send mail to Email Continuity when the primary mailhost is down by listing the
Email Continuity MTA as a backup mail record within the MessageLabs configuration.
2. Configure Email Continuity to send mail directly to the primary mailhost instead of through the MX record (to
prevent mail looping).
3. Configure the firewall to allow inbound SMTP traffic (port 25) for the Email Continuity servers. This rule is the
same as the firewall rule that allows inbound mail from MessageLabs.
