Hello all,
sorry, if this is a FAQ...
I try to use MX for the delivery to decnet nodes. My hope: if the node
is down, MX will retry (not only abort on the first try like vmsmail).
I tested with a nonexisting node named "down" :-)
DEFINE REWRITE_RULE "<{USER}@DOWN>" "<DOWN::USER>"
The rewrite takes place, but then MX attemps to deliver via the smtp
path (which is the last one in the path list).
My questions: can I really do this with MX? Where are my faults, what
definitions are missing? What is the recommended procedure for this
task?
Thank you.
Hans.
