Yes, you do it in Postfix with aliases. > The "man postfix" says: > ===== > -notify_classes (resource, software) > > The list of error classes that are reported to the postmaster. > > -2bounce_notice_recipient (postmaster) > > The recipient of undeliverable mail that cannot be returned > to the sender. > > -bounce_notice_recipient (postmaster) > > The recipient of postmaster notifications with the message > headers of mail that Postfix did not deliver and of SMTP conversation > transcripts of mail that Postfix did not receive. > ===== > > So it looks like a bounce mail can be transferred as a copy to a specific > user besides postmaster this way. > > notify_classes = resource, software, bounce <---Add 'bounce' to the > parameter here. > > 2bounce_notice_recipient = t...@domain.com <---Specify the email address > where you want a bounce mail to be returned. > bounce_notice_recipient = t...@domain.com <---Specify the email address > where you want a bounce mail to be returned. You don't want this because even if you can make it work, it will affect all bounced mail. > The scenario is as follows: > 1.A sender sends an email to a mailing list. > 2.The mailing list has a user that does not exist anymore. > 3.A bounce mail is set to return to the sender. > 4.The bounce mail is sent to one specific user besides the sender. > > Is this the right way?

First of all bounces are returned to the listname-bounces address to enable automatic bounce processing to disable delivery and ultimately remove bouncing users. What are you trying to accomplish by sending them also to another address? If all you want to do is see them, beginning in Mailman 2.1.19, there is a bounce_notify_owner_on_bounce_increment setting in bounce processing to send them to the list owner. See <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1382150>. If this isn't satisfactory, you can look at your Mailman aliases for Postfix which are probably in Mailman's data/aliases and data/aliases.db files. what you need to do is make a second set, say alias_overrides and alias_overrides.db. In aliases you will see the entire set of list aliases for all lists. In particular, for the list of interest there will be a line like LISTNAME-bounces: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman bounces LISTNAME" copy that one line exactly to alias_overrides and then add a second line beginning with whitespace with the second address like: t...@domain.com Then run postalias alias_overrides to create alias_overrides.db and if necessary change tehe ownership of alias_overrides.db to match that of Mailman's aliases.db and finally, add hash:/path/to/alias_overrides to Postfix alias_maps ahead of the entry for Mailman's aliases. Do it this way because Mailman will periodically update its aliases, at least if you are using Mailman's Postfix integration. Note: this all assumes you are using aliases to deliver from Postfix to Mailman. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
