SMTP: How to Backbone Over SMTP

• Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP, version 3.0

SUMMARY

It is possible to backbone over SMTP. Backboning is where one organization has one office in location A and another office in location B and mail is exchanged mail between the two locations using SMTP as the mechanism. Any postoffice can submit mail to a postoffice at the other location through its respective gateway.

For example, there may be five postoffices on a local-area network (LAN) in location A and another five on a LAN in location B, with one postoffice as a gateway postoffice in each location and the remaining postoffices as downstream SMTP postoffices.

Backboning and its setup requirements are discussed in the "Backbone Mail" section in Chapter 3 of the "Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP Administrator's Guide."
