Sending email from remote servers

Posted by multiplex77, 04-02-2009, 05:00 AM

Hi, My company's domain is mycompany.com and we are hosting our corporate website in our own datacenter. Now I want to create another website subdomain, site1.mycompany.com, to be hosted in an external third party datacenter. Is it possible for me to send out email from the third party servers using the address info@site1.mycompany.com? I do not want to spoof any outgoing mail. HOpe someone can shed some light on this for me. Thank you.

If site1.mycompany.com is hosted on another server, then it's just like a separate account. You can send mail for site1.mycompany.com through the separate server it is on.

Also update your SPF records in dns to show what servers are permitted to send mail for your domains.
