When mail is addressed using an internet address in the Router's responsible internet domain, and the result of the look-up of that internet address indicates the user is in another Notes domain, the Router will forward a copy of the message to that domain. If the message was selected for journaling, this copy will also be journaled.
Setting JournalLimitForwardToDomain=1 will prevent this duplicate copy of the forwarded message from being journaled. The original message will still be journaled. This option must be enabled on the server which has journaling enabled, and which is doing the forwarding.
Recommendation: Enable this option on servers with journalling enabled because it can substantially reduce the size of the journalling database.
Domino Configuration Tuner: This setting is included in the DCT catalog of best practices as of Domino 8.5
SPR# CAOA6J8CK4 - This fix introduces a Notes.ini to limit the number of copies of a message that are journaled for a specific case.
When mail is addressed using an internet address in the Router's responsible internet domain and the result of the lookup of that internet address indicates the user is in another Notes domain, the Router will forward a copy of the message to that domain. If the message was selected for journaling, this copy will also be journaled.
This fix provides the Notes.ini variable "JournalLimitForwardToDomain=1", which will prevent this duplicate copy of the forwarded message from being journaled.
The original message will still be journaled.
The Notes.ini variable must be enabled on the server which has journaling enabled, and which is doing the forwarding.
This SPR is fixed in 7.0.2
