[rt-users] Working within an exchange environment

[Sergey Gurov]

Hi,

Our company uses Exchange (W2K Server) and RT (FreeBSD 5) in the
following way.
All mail for our corporate domain (zzz at ourcorp.ru) goes to Xchange.
Our DNS servers have another MX record for 3rd level domain
rt.ourcorp.ru which points to our RT server behind firewall.
Every RT queue has its own mail address zzz at rt.ourcorp.ru.
Sendmail serves as our MTA on RT machine.
Outgoing mail passes through default relay (Xchnge server).

Everything is very simple, transparent and reliable (except Xchnage :).

Hope this helps,
Sergey.
