Mithun:
Yup. I know and have setup Qmail quite successfully with this setup that you
mention. Which is the way the world works today. However, my clients want it
the old way (one catchall account having a whole tonload of emails for about
20 users) (box 1) and from which all the emails have to come in to another box
with qmail on it.
Suresh: your idea has been tried out by me. Somehow it won't work. Even the
qmail docs have given sample recipes but unfortunately the emails are going
into vapor right now! BTW, the sendmail stuff works but (but!) client does
not want sendmail. :)
Hmmm.. I guess I have to fight it out with the clients and tell them that
multidrop accounts are not good at all.
