Proxy Agent - Queue Server

IMPORTANT: You must restart the mailprox executable to effect any changes in the Proxy Agent's configuration. For information on loading and unloading the NetMail® Agents, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.

The queue server is the messaging queue to which the Proxy Agent delivers messages that need to be processed. Because NMAP Agents manage the message queue, the Queue Server property corresponds to an NMAP Agent.

Each Proxy Agent can only have one queue server. On a standalone messaging server, WebAdmin automatically selects the NMAP Agent on the current server. In distributed messaging systems, you can select any NMAP Agent on a distributed messaging server. Click the Browse button to select an NMAP Agent using the Browse dialog box.

IMPORTANT: If you have a distributed messaging system with multiple NMAP Agents, you must design your system so that each queue agent only processes messages one time as they go from the queue server to the message store. For more information, see the Novell NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.

To verify that a Proxy Agent is registered to a particular queue server:

  1. Telnet to the queue server at port 689. (You must be a trusted host.)
  2. Enter the config command to see a list of currently registered agents.
