hi all,

Install the virtual gateway appliance djigzo, the idea is to test mine with  
a valid domain that I have set, which would have to do is to register my  
domain user on the frontend djigzo eg user(a)domain.com , Register the  
domain.com up there all perfect, now comes the part of MTA Config in My  
networks would have to make my domain.com SMTP right?

With that configuration, and could be tested via telnet connected to the ip  
and there djigzo send an email to user(a)domain.com where djigzo would make  
gateway and communicates with my domain.com SMTP to deliver mail to user @  
domain.com.

Thank you very much for your help.

Djigzo uses Postfix for the MTA part. "My networks" is the range of IP  
addresses which are allowed to relay email to domains not listed in  
"Relay domains". "My Networks" should only contain local IP addresses  
that are under your control.

If you want to receive email for domain example.com, you need to add  
example.com to the "Relay domains".

In most situations, the domains specified in the "Relay domains" should  
also be internal domains. You therefore also need to add these domains  
to the Domains page and make them internal.

Yes that's correct. The "Internal relay host" setting on the MTA page  
determines to which server incoming email for one of your relay domains  
will be delivered. In most setups you need to specify your internal SMTP  
server on which your mailboxes are stored.

Kind regards,

Martijn
