Hello world,
Actually, I'm using qmail on a few classic internet servers
(direct connected to the net, access via pop), and I'm _Very_
happy of it.
Now, I have to do something more complex, and I'm looking for
some advices oder places to RTFM : if you have an idea, please
mail me!
Situation : there are 4 servers. The first one [Main Server] ist
directely connected to the internet, and the other connect themselves
every hour to the mainserver via ppp using modems.
When the mails are on the [Client Servers], the access is done using pop3
protocol. Important : the email adresses are differents between the
client servers. For example : if there is a [EMAIL PROTECTED] in client1,
there won't be and onther [EMAIL PROTECTED] on the other clients.
[INTERNET]
|
[Main Server]
*@foobar.com
|
[PPP MODEM DIALIN]
[MODEM1]
|
[Client Server1]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
|
[local area network, pop access]
[MODEM2]
|
[Client Server2]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
|
[local area network, pop3 access]
[...]
Possible solutions :
[1] On the main server, I create one separate account for every @foobar.com user,
and the clients retrive the mails for each account separately using
for example fetchmail -> would work, but not so "nice"
[2] On the main server, I create 3 accounts (one for each [Client Server]).
The clients then retrive their mails, and then localy dispatch the
mails on the local accounts. -> that's the solution I'd like
to use, but don't really know how and where to start / what tool to use.
[3] any other good idea ?
Thanks a lot for any hint,
Olivier
