I have a question regarding forwards.

We currently have two e-mail systems in place (one legacy, that is going
away and our new toaster), when the legacy system goes away, it would be
advantageous to re-create its domain on the toaster and forward all mail
going to the old accounts to the new accounts.


The new accounts are not just the same old name at a new domain, but
completely different.  To make this work, I would have to create a
forward for every old account on the old system to it's equiv. account
on the new.

Is there a way to script this so I don't have to manually put in 300+
forwards?

With some scripting you could dump the old email addresses as a text file, create the old domain on the Toaster, and run your text file through a script to create the forwards for you. It'd be difficult, since the new email addresses are not similar to the old, but I guess you could create the text file like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
....

and have the script run that way.
