SMTP Connector
If you use an SMTP connector for sending outbound internet mail, and it is
configured to use a smart host and not DNS, then you must create an additional
SMTP connector for the Historical Mail address space that uses internal DNS for
address resolution.
In this configuration, if the additional SMTP connector is not created for the
Historical Mail address space, then the Exchange servers may route the mail that
should go to the VaultBox systems out to the internet through the SMTP connector
for internet mail.
For additional information on SMTP connector configuration for the Historical Mail
feature, contact Support.
Hardware Requirements
Verify that the server you plan to use as the primary controller (the ESS server)
has the following minimum hardware:
Email Continuity typically does not require a dedicated server.
If you plan to install Historical Mail, the VaultBox must have a dedicated server.
You can use the same server on which SyncManager and RecoveryManager are
installed, or you can dedicate a second, separate server to the VaultBox software.
If you plan to install the RedirectorController, ensure that its server meets the
requirements as well.
