Hi all.

I hope this makes sense. I would like to run both hMailServer & SmarterMail on the same server & DNP installation. The server has 5 IP's, so it shouldn't be a problem running 2 mailservers (each bound to a specific IP) - same as running MySQL 4 & MySQL or MSSQL 2000 & MSSQL 2005 together. 

The problem I see, is that when I create a hosting packge, I can't select between the 2 mailservers. I have added both SM & hMS to my server, and they both work on the server itself. But I can't see how to distinquish between the two in the hosting packages.

Can this be done?

 You may want to change the "Name" of the email to hMailServer instead of the standard "Mail" so you can distinguish the two. Then you will need to add it to the Hosting Plans as another service. That should be it on the DNP side.

 Now you will need to configure the email servers to listen on which IP's for incoming email.

I have tried that already. In the servers list, I can see both "SmarterMail" & "hMailServer" in the "Mail" service field - yet when you edit the package, it only gives "Mail" options. So it doesn't seem to recognize the fact that there's 2 mailservers listed.
