Resolution


By default the GWIA will send outbound mail on it's own, entirely bypassing the SMTP scanner.  However, if you would like to send mail out through the SMTP scanner, (reasons can range from wanting to scan outbound mail, to wanting to use outbound mail for GWAVA's learning system, or just wanting everything going out and coming into the same place) you will need to put the 'Relay Host for outbound messages' setting into the GWIA settings in ConsoleOne.
