we use Xeams as spam firewall for inbound messages. I want Xeams to listen on 2 ip addresses. In "SMTP Proxy Configuration" I may bind to only one "specific" ip address or to "All unassigned" ip addresses. How to bind it to 2 ip addresses? |

Dear Aldar, The current version of Xeams cannot bind to 2 IPs. It can either bind to one or every available IP. How many IP addresses do you have on this machine?

Thanks for response. We have 6 ipv4 addresses. Any workaround? May be edit some conf files directly? |

Unfortunately, there is no conf file to modify regarding this. This feature cannot be achieved without code modification. There is a technical reason for it. When binding to a socket, the low-level APIs either take a NULL (meaning it will bind to every IP) or a single IP. Do you have other SMTP servers on the other IP? Can those be moved on a different VM? |
