Direction of incoming and outgoing messages

[nqb]

Hello,

I would like to describe direction of incoming and outgoing messages to sendmailanalyzer. I don't understand which variable(s) has to be set in sendmailanalyzer.conf (LOCAL_DOMAIN, MAIL_HUB, or MAIL_GATEWAY) in a simple case like : one server receives messages for one domain (mydom.com), deliveries on same server.

Example of two messages receives on this mail server :

External -> Internal

Hi,

Have you tried to set the following:

LOCAL_DOMAIN 127.0.0.1

MAIL_HUB and MAIL_GATEWAY should remain empty.

Let me know.

Hello,

I have tried our advice in 9.2 :

LOCAL_DOMAIN 127.0.0.1

With this config, in Global Statistics -> Messaging menu, on "Message delivery flows" table, I see only two rows with numbers :

• External -> External
• Internal -> External

To my mind, there is no "External -> External" messages, only three cases :

• Internal -> External
• Internal -> Internal
• External -> Internal

Moreover, in Top Statistics -> Senders or Recipients, I don't see :

• any senders from external direction
• any recipients from internal direction

How to fix this ?

Thanks.
