Sun Java System Messaging Server 6 2005Q4 Administration Guide

Tailor File

The tailor file, imta_tailor, sets the location of various MTA components. For the MTA to function properly, the imta_tailor file must always reside in the msg_svr_base/config directory.

Although you can edit this file to reflect the changes in a particular installation, you must do so with caution. After making any changes to this file, you must restart the MTA. It is preferable to make the changes while the MTA is down.


Note –

Do not edit this file unless absolutely necessary.
