This email will probably serve more purpose in the mailing list archive :). I just wrote a perl script (qmail_misdirect) that can used to ease the management of a catch-all account. It changes the subject line of emails to show the email address that the emails were send to, ie: "Subject: Misdirected email sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [Subject was: I seek your advice.]" It works such as: .qmail-default = |forward catch-all .qmail-catch = | /path/qmail_misdirect It will then write the email to $HOME/Maildir or you can tell it where via the command line, ie: "| /path/to/qmail_misdirect /home/users/kenny/Maildir" I intend to take this a further, checking the sender or recipient against a database and perhaps trashing or bounce the message. The database could be maintained by forwarding the offending email to a certain account, etc. If there is actually interest here please let me know, I think that this would be a much easy way to allow clients server side filtering then say, maildrop. Oh.. the url :) http://muspellsheim.net/software/qmail_misdirect/index.html kenny [EMAIL PROTECTED]
