I think email sending/forwarding is not the dbmail's strongest feature, which should be better left for an external MTA to handle, MTA such as postfix have features which can be used for disabling email header rewrites, which comes very handy if you are forwarding emails that needs to be authenticated using domainkeys/DKIM. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0002938) paul (administrator) - 01-Nov-09 12:56 http://www.dbmail.org/mantis/view.php?id=814#c2938 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There is nothing that prevents you from using your MTA to do all forwarding. No need to change dbmail.
