Changing the MTA Postmaster Address
The ACE XML Gateway can receive SMTP traffic for certain types of services. Specifically, it can
process and validate ebXML content passed as email attachments. To use ebXML service processing at
the gateway, you configure an ebXML-based service definition in the Manager web console.
Note The Gateway's SMTP server never acts as a relay. It accepts incoming messages only for local addresses
and it accepts outgoing messages only from the gateway. Periodically, the SMTP server attempts to
resend messages that suffered transient failures. The MTA does not support SMTP over SSL or TLS
within SMTP.
If an ebXML service is added to the policy, the appliance opens port 25 to handle SMTP traffic.
Thereafter, it’s possible for the ACE XML Gateway MTA to receive email in its postmaster mailbox.
The postmaster address is a standard administrative address for MTA’s (as required by the SMTP
protocol). It does not affect incoming or outgoing gateway traffic.
If desired, you can modify the address so that mail to the postmaster is sent to another location, or keep
the default, in which case the postmaster mailbox is the root user’s mailbox on the ACE XML Gateway.
To change the existing address:
