Single domain for 4 email servers

    I have 4 e-mail servers, eg:

    mx01.example.com
    mx02.example.com
    mx03.example.com
    mx04.example.com

    There are 4 areas, each pointing to a server, or need to configure my email client with 4 different domains.

    I would create a single server with single domain (eg: mx.example.com) to redirect the demands for the 4 servers. The ISPConfig has a feature that allows this?

    Hi


    You can add as many email domains as you like in one email server, just add them all in the email module.

    Hi Srijan,

    Thanks for the reply. We have some limitations to host multiple domains on the same server, noting that the rate of consumption of each of them and the memory capacity and processing each server. Having the flexibility to maintain access to multiple servers through a single domain, help us a lot.

    you can run a 4 way mirror server for email in ispconfig and manage the whole cluster trough the master server. For the mail storage (directory /var/www) you will have to use a cluster filesystem or san storage, that can be mounted on all 4 servers, so that they share the same mail storage and emails are available on all 4 systems, independantly where they got received.
