dns forwarding

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.dns (More info?)

hello,

I am using a w2k dns server with multiple domains, iis and an imail mail
server. . my question is without using iis or any mail server settings is it
possible to setup dns so that companyA and companyB receive the same mails
and have companyA's web site.
for example if a mail for companyA arrives is goes directly to companyB's
mailboxes. companyB should not have any mailboxes and does not need to have
a web site.

thanks in advance for your help.

regards

burak

The subject line does not match the question, and the question is confusing.
But I'll give it a shot at what I think you are asking.

Point the MX record for both domains to the same SMTP server.
Example.
companyA
@ MX mail.companyA.com

companyB
@ MX mail.companyA.com

Then set the mailbox on the Imail virtual server to accept mail for both
domains. For information on doing that check Imail's documentation.
