Rumor has it that Gregory J. Forkin may have mentioned these words:

I agree with Gregory on being aware of the implications, and what I have to
suggest may not be pretty either, but here goes:
*If* this person has a static IP address, and you're using tcpserver, you
can log all outbound mail from his IP address, so at least you'll have
proof of "email-infidelity"...
I will *not* go into the illegalities of hijacking someone's outbound email
in this manner..... let the PHB's get in trouble for that. I'm just letting
you know it's possible.
Add a line to the /etc/tcp.smtp file, like this:
xx.xx.xx.xx:allow,RELAYCLIENT="pookie"
where xx.xx.xx.xx is the person's static IP address, then in
/var/qmail/control/virtualdomains, put in this line:
pookie:alias-pookie
then make the file /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-pookie-default which contains:
|/var/qmail/alias/logeverything.pl
where logeverything.pl is a perl script that logs all messages to a file,
here's my quick&dirty, but it may help for starters...
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# This is a quick test program to see if the selective mail routing will work.
# Open a file to store all of the environment variables,
open (Q,">>/var/qmail/alias/pookie-logger.txt");
# go thru each environment variable and write them to my logfile...
foreach $quack ( sort(keys(%ENV))) {
print Q "ENV - $quack = $ENV{$quack}\n";
}
print Q "\n\n";
# open a mail to re-mail everything that comes in to my real mail account...
open (MAIL,"|/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject $ENV{'EXT2'}");
open (MAIL2,"|/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject mail\@me.too");
@zline = <STDIN>;
foreach $liner (@zline) {
print MAIL "$liner";
print MAIL2 "$liner";
# and also send a copy of the mail to the logfile that I have.
print Q "OrgMail: $liner";
}
# Shut 'er down, boys!!! ;-)
close (Q);
close (MAIL);
close (MAIL2);
=================
This proggie will output some extra info to the logfile, like the
environment variables - it's good for a beginner so s/he can find out what
the ENV variables look like, what to expect for parameters, etc...
Hope this helps,
