It's quite simple really. Set up your courier to accept all email for somedomain.com, and using esmtproutes, route all mail for somedomain.com to the Exchange server: somedomain.com:[exchange.server.ip.address] Then, create aliases on courier for the special local accounts, like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: user2@localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Make sure you list "localhost" in courier's locals file, and mail for user2 will be delivered to local account "user2". Mail for user3 will simply be routed away by courier to another-domain.com using the usual MX records. -- Anand Buddhdev _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
