Subject: temporary relaying of a domain
From: Louis-David Mitterrand (cunctatorapartia.ch)

To make a long story short, let's say a client's ISP messed-up their DNS
configuration and pointed the client's MX to a host controled by me (but
unconfigured to receive mail for that client) instead of pointing the
MX to the client's own host.

What's would be the best way (until the DNS is fixed) to redirect all
mail coming in for that client into my host (the wrong) towards the
correct host (the client's)? Should I use a transport map with:

client-domain.fr smtp:<IP addresse of client mailhost>
or
client-domain.fr smtp:client.mx-backup.fr
(this is maybe better because the client host is connected through ISDN)

Does it require that I add anything else in $mydestination or another
parameter on my machine?

TIA
