Dear all, hi,
I'm facing an unusual problem. The company I work for is using internet e-mail facility from an ISP. All employees have e-mail space on this mail server hosted on the internet and connect via Outlook Express/ MS Outlook to send and receive mails using an ADSL connection . The Email addresses are like [EMAIL PROTECTED] We have now invested in a QUBE 3 (running cobalt linux 6.2) with the Intention of having our own mail hub so that local mails are delivered locally (and quicker) by the QUBE's mail server as well as to the outer world . The QUBE is in a Private network (does not have a valid Public I.P ). We also want the new e-mail address to reflect our City name (Bombay) and have changed the domain name in the QUBE to "bom.mydomain.com" and the email address to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . For the transition between the existing and new addresses, we have asked our ISP to send a copy of all users mails to a multidrop POP3 ID to be downloaded by the QUBE 3 till the time all clients are aware of the new e-mail addresses. These mails are then downloaded by the Qube's remote-retrieval facility. However the Qube is not able to sort the mails to the right user inbox ie: emails are addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I've configured the domain "bom.mydomain.com" on the Qube3. The Qube expects e-mails from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and so fetchmail is unable to deliver the email of user "asif " to his respective inbox. It stores this email message into the admin's inbox giving following error "X-Fetchmail-Warning: recipient address [EMAIL PROTECTED] didn't match any local name" in the /var/spool/mail/admin file. How can I make the Qube Have the downloaded mail (especially those which are being forwarded by our ISP from users "mydomain.com" inbox to the POP3 inbox) delivered to users respective inbox rather than Admin's inbox ? I cannot change the sub-domain configuration on the Qube to "mydomain.com" because I want to have emails sent from our office to reflect their city (Bombay). Anyone could tell me how do I achieve this?
