Configuration of Domino mail topology
End users will mostly use the Notes mail interface to send Sms messages. They compose a mail
message using the Notes client or iNotes and address it to
John@0474778899@Sms
The @ character is recognized by the Domino router as a Domino domain separator. Domino
must know how to route the mail to the foreign domain called Sms. The Sms4Domino
configuration database must be specified as the gateway server and file.
In case your Domino environment consists of multiple Domino servers you may need to configure
Domino connection documents to specify the path from each server to the server that holds the
Sms4Domino configuration database.
We will first show how to configure Domino mail routing for a Single Instance topology and then
for the more complex Multiple Instance topology.
Following text has been copied from the Lotus Administrator Help File
IBM® Lotus® Domino® treats external messaging applications , such as fax or pager gateways, as
foreign domains. To route mail from a Domino domain to an external application, create a Foreign
domain document.

Creating a Foreign domain document
A Foreign domain document defines the path between a Domino domain and an external application ,
such as a fax or pager gateway. A Foreign domain document identifies the Domino server that acts as
the gateway to the external application.
Although Foreign domains are mostly used for third party applications , you can also use them to
transfer messages between a Release 5.0 or later server and a Release 3.x SMTP server.
Restrictions that you set on this Foreign domain document apply only to the From domain of the
previous hop. These restrictions work in conjunction with those in the Configuration Settings document .
Domino always defaults to the most restrictive entry .
