SMTP with Zimbra and .local domain
Our KBox is configured with a hostname in the form of kbox.domain.local As such, the internal e-mail is set to help@hostname.domain.local Our Alt. e-mail address is help@schooldomain.k12.mi.us
Furthermore, our e-mail is hosted externally on Zimbra. Any ideas on how to get INBOUND e-mail working properly in this setup? Seems that outbound e-mail is fine (we are sending out through our internal SMTP server). TIA.

Are you talking about the K1000 internal SMTP or another one you have in your environment? Are you getting any errors or bounce-back messages?

I have a different SMTP server specified in the network settings. This SMTP sits on the same local network as my kbox. I can e-mail from the SMTP server to the KBox, no problem. Where I'm struggling is how to get the e-mail from my outside hosted provider inbound to the kbox from the outside. Thanks for the links, I"ll check them out but I think we are 99% of the way there. - prowley 11 years ago
Does your outside hosted provider support pop3 or ssl over pop3?
If so, configure the K1 to login to the pop3 account and pull down the emails. Use the internal smtp server to relay email to the external smtp server
