surprisingly.........
i have a record in the 'aliases' table

id              alias                           maildir
1003        [EMAIL PROTECTED]        arvind

by default when i send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] my /var/spool/mail/arvind file
gets appended.

my 'remote_aliases table' has this record

alias        rcpt
arbir        arvind


when i send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] then, the mail goes to $HOME/maildir/
while [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to /var/spool/mail/arvind

why is this happening?


Arvind
