Amavisd.conf forward method

Question

greetings
i am using amavis to forward to an internal relay.
$forward_method = 'smtp:10.10.10.1'
I have recently setup 2 new smtp relays running SSL only port 465
i have setup round robin DNS names
can i use a this config ?
$forward_method = 'smtp:smtp.example.com:465'
or do I have to use an IP address ?

Answer 1

okay,.. solved problem. ( well work around )
posting this for the good of the community.
to keep the ssl available for clients and accept relay from my amavis host I had to create another port on the smtp relays to accept incoming mail without ssl.
on amavisd host:
amavis.conf
$forward_method = 'smtp:smtp.example.com:2525';
smtp1
master.cf
# ==========================================================================
# service type private unpriv chroot wakeup maxproc command + args
# (yes) (yes) (yes) (never) (100)
# ==========================================================================
smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
2525 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o mynetworks=10.10.1.6
-o smtpdclient_restrictions=permitmynetworks,reject
-o smtpdenforcetls=no
-o smtpdsasl_authenable=no
smtp2
master.cf
# ==========================================================================
# service type private unpriv chroot wakeup maxproc command + args
# (yes) (yes) (yes) (never) (100)
# ==========================================================================
smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
2525 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o mynetworks=10.10.1.6
-o smtpdclient_restrictions=permitmynetworks,reject
-o smtpdenforcetls=no
-o smtpdsasl_authenable=no
where 10.10.1.6 is the address of the amavisd host.
then create a DNS record for SMTP1 & SMTP2
work great
