Ok maybe i don't quite understand you, or i didn't make my situation clear enough:
1: I want the alias user to handle all virtual domains, since i own the box this
should not be a
problem and i don't need to clutter up my home dir with .qmail files.
2: I am serving to many different people from every virtual domain i have, some being
actual account
on my machine, some being simple aliases for remote accounts.
now the way i have set it up works perfektly for me, EXCEPT the problem i showed in my
original
mail.
What i am looking for is a way to make the forwarding dynamical based on the extension.
example:
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is delivered to mbj-ext-1@localhost
and mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is delivered to mbj-ext-2@localhost
(both owned by user mbj ofcause)
but i also want mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is delivered to tony-ext-1@localhost
and mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is delivered to tony-ext-2@localhost
(both owned by user tony ofcause)
at the same time i want mail to sam*@domain.com is delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
i mean instead of having a dead $[EMAIL PROTECTED] command in the alias users
.qmail-whatever,
isn't there a way for me to route the incomming mail intelligently in a catch-all way
based on the
first word? (by first word i mean mbj or tony or sam in the examples above)
Do i make any sense or am i very terrible with the english language and unable to
explain what i
mean (or am i just unable to see the forrest because of to alle the trees blocking my
vision)? (i am
danish, sorry :)
Thanks for not being too impatient with my stupidity
