GetMail: Leave only "Forward Copy to" functionalit

[rafitorres]

Our Pagegate server is currently using the GetMail module for 2 things:

1. Accept emails addressed to a pager (1234567@ourpagegateserver.com).

2. Forward messages sent to certain recipients to external email addresses (message sent to pager 1234567 is forwarded to johndoe@yahoo.com) using the "Forward Copy To" field in the recipient config.

We want to turn off part 1 but want to leave part 2 working. If I understand correctly, we can't disable the GetMail module completely, so what would be the correct configuration to make this work (on each recipient and GetMail)?

Note: outgoing emails would go through another SMTP server that we have on our network.

Thanks in advance.

Well, right now, the reason that the program is accepting email for the ourpagegateserver.com domain is twofold. One, if you go to Interfaces - GetMail - Settings, you have it entered into the local domain field. Two, you have the MX record for the domain pointed at the PageGate Server. If either of these things change, PageGate will not longer look at the domain (it'll be looking at a different domain that doesn't receive traffic) or it just won't be receiving any traffic.

Thank you. We removed the MX record in the DNS and that worked.
