Route one email address to a different email-server

[bvj197222]

Our customer wants to route one single email address to another destination host than the one used for the domain (SMTP route). Is it possible to add a separate smtp-route for only one email address? If not an option is to add a subdomain and have a separate smpt-route for the sub.

Hi,

Emails for a single email address can be routed to an alternate host using content/message filters.

Route: if (rcpt-to == "abc@domain.com")
{
alt-mailhost ("[10.10.10.10]");
}
.

The action alt-mailhost bypasses the route defined in the SMTP routes.

Also the SMTP routes allow the below formats

Examples:
Hostname: exchange.example.com
Full domain: example.com
Partial domain: .example.com
IPv4 address: 192.168.1.1
IPv6 address: 2001:420:80:1::5

Thus a separate SMTP route cannot be defined for a specific email address, however can be done for partial domains.

Thanks
