John, this isn't really security-related, probably best suited for cobalt-users, but... Your example is confusing b/c you don't mention a username and you used "bob" in both the server and external email address and then say bob doesn't exist. But I think you're saying that there is *not* a user on the server and you want to keep it that way, but fwd email for a specific email address to an external location. OK. Add the following to the bottom of /etc/mail/virtusertable: # Tab between two parts below [EMAIL PROTECTED] dummyuser1 Then type: makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable.db < /etc/virtusertable Then add the following to the bottom of /etc/mail/aliases: dummyuser1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then type: newaliases Done.
