Setting up SMTP routing to external Internet domains
To send messages over SMTP to destinations outside of the local Internet domain -- for example, to the Internet or another private network -- you must enable external SMTP routing.

1. From the Domino® Administrator, click the Configuration tab and then expand the Messaging section.

2. Choose Configurations.

3. Select the Configuration Settings document and then click Edit Configuration.

4. On the Router/SMTPBasics tab, for the field SMTP used when sending messages outside the local Internet domain, choose one of these options, and then save the document:

Results

The change takes effect after the next Router configuration update. To put the new setting into effect immediately, reload the routing configuration.
