Internet Email Question

Bruce Currier |   | Comments (2)  |  Visits (438)
We are a Domino 7.02 environment.  We have a mixture of office & factory workers.  My question is - is there an easy way to provide internal mail but block internet email (incoming and outgoing) to a subset of my users?

In Domino Administrator Help, check out the document "Restricting users from sending Internet mail". It outlines how you can specify an address book group that lists all users who are not allowed to send internet messages. Similarly, the document "Restricting users from receiving Internet mail" outlines how to block internet messages intended for certain users.

I did some testing on this and it works. The only caveat is dealing with incoming messages. I forget the exact setting, but we do not have our environment configured to do an exact match on the internet address field. This means it is possible to send email not only to name@company.com, but also first.last@company.com. What this means is that I either have to put an awful lot of combinations of internet addresses in the group I created for blocking incoming SMTP messages or just go with the "official" email address and hope for the best.

Blocking outgoing SMTP messages works just fine though.

Thanks for the help!!!!
