Occasionally, a business may need to run a hybrid environment consisting of SmarterMail and Microsoft 365. This is generally due to some users having existing Microsoft 365 accounts while others will be using solely SmarterMail. However, it can also be useful during a migration from Microsoft 365 to SmarterMail to ensure email messages are not lost or orphaned.
This is accomplished through Split Domain Routing (SDR). SDR allows users with email addresses in the same domain to receive emails at two different email service providers. It involves configuring DNS records and email forwarding rules to manage how emails are delivered to different servers.
To set this up in SmarterMail, what you will need to do is to go to the domain settings for that domain and adjust the inbound delivery setting.
Things to Note
If you have Require SMTP Authentication enabled for the domain on its Security card, you will want to add a Bypass SMTP Authentication for that domain in its Security settings.
