It is. You just need to generate a file in /etc/courier/aliases/ that looks more or less like: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... After you've generated the alias file, run "makealiases". >> You'll also want to make arrangements on the MX for somedomain.org >> server so that it never rejects messages from the MX from >> somedomain.com.

You'd have to work that out with your provider. The risk you run is that if your .org mail server rejects a mail for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" because it's spam or a virus, then courier will start rejecting mail for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" until that issue is resolved. You could turn off backscatter suppression, but then you'd run in to the problem where your queue fills up and postmaster gets a lot of mail it need not. Generally, you need to make sure that either your .com server has the same protections that your .org server has, or the .org server has to whitelist the .com server and never check anything that comes in that way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
