Split domain

Post by armitage318 »

Hi,

I manage domain.com on server1 (cPanel).
I am moving to server2 (Zimbra, open source edition).
Basically I followed this tutorial to setup a "split domain" scenario:

https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Split_Domain

Users on server1 are able to send messages to server2, and vice versa.

My question is: is there a way to create an user on server2, which should not yet receive email from other users on server2?
I mean: I need to create someuser@domain.com on server2 (Zimbra). But I want that, if someother@doman.com (already on Zimbra) send a message to someuser@domain.com, this message should be received on server1.
How can I manage this (if possible)?
Thank you very much

Assuming that you are using the "Zimbra as primary system" method, based on the mail transport, yes.
Simply set the zimbraMailTransport attribute of someuser@ as "smtp:your_cpanel_server:25"
