This document covers the following topics:
To add an external Con-nect node, enter a name for the node in the "Mail Node/Type" field at the bottom of the "Administration - External Mail Nodes" screen. This is the name that is to be entered as the addressee when sending mail. Then, select the "Add Mail Node" function.
The "Add Mail Node" screen is displayed, and you must enter the necessary information for adding a new node as described in Add a Mail Node. Specify the address level and node type (A - Con-nect) and press ENTER. In the "Select Service Type" window, specify whether the new Con-nect node will use the spool file or transport service method. Mark the method you want and press ENTER.
Note:
The spool file method is part of an older implementation of
multi-node Con-nect. It is included here for backward compatibility, and we
recommend that you do not use it. Multi-node Con-nect functionality is fully
provided by the transport service method which should be used instead.
If you select the transport service method, the window below is displayed:
