+# hMailServer Configuration Project Status
+
+## Overview
+Project to document and resolve hMailServer SMTP relay configuration issues.
+
+## Completed
+- [x] Created project structure and documentation
+- [x] Identified root cause: missing SMTP route configuration
+- [x] Resolved issue by configuring local domain route in hMailServer
+- [x] Verified fix: emails to local domain now delivered locally instead of through relay
+- [x] Created Gitea repository at https://gitea.loperfamily.com/Sage_Software/hmailserver-configuration
+
+## In Progress
+- None currently
+
+## Next
+- Monitor Mailjet relay usage to confirm no more suspicious activity
+- Consider documenting the SMTP route configuration process as a general guide
+- Review other domains configured on hMailServer to ensure proper routing
+
+## Decisions/Notes
+- Root cause was that hMailServer was sending ALL outbound SMTP traffic through the relay, including emails addressed to local domains
+- The fix required adding an SMTP route in hMailServer Administrator → Routes → Add Route
+- Route configuration: Domain = `assettrackr.co`, Deliver to = `Local delivery`
+- This is a common oversight when setting up SMTP relays - the relay handles outbound mail, but local domains need explicit "local delivery" routing
+
+## Files Created
+- `README.md` - Project documentation with background, solution, and references
+- `HMAILSERVER-CONFIG.md` - Configuration reference with SMTP relay and route settings
