Yes - at least in qmailadmin when you check the forward to box it has the option of keeping a copy locally...which you don't have to do. So it could come into the qmail server and be forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You would have to specify the host's fqdn since mx records point to qmail. I am NOT sure if merak would accept it with the fqdn of the host though. I don't think qmail will, but someone else with more knowledge could respond to that point. It might be just as simple as creating an alias domain (you can in qmail) of merak.domain1.com aliases to domain1.com on merak. Hope that makes sense...and helps.

I'm actually looking for a similar solution. I want to make a slow migration from my current post office software. Both of my servers are in same location. Let me explain what I want to do and maybe that will help Gabriel too. I have Qmail on one machine and Merak on the other. I have about 40 domains in Merak. - If I added domain1.com to Qmail and it already had it with users in Merak. I want to duplicate the users in Qmail and I'll set the MX to send into Qmail. - On a user by user basis I want to move the users storage into Qmail to make it as transparent to them as possible. So currently say I have 4 users all in Merak for domain1.com. I want to have the same 4 users in Qmail but when mail comes in, forward the specific accounts to another host as the accounts move. I'm envisioning this in the middle of the process: Accounts in Qmail Accounts in Merak Mary Mary Forward to Merak Joe Joe Stay in Qmail Fred Fred Stay in Qmail Jane Jane Forward to Merak Isn't there a setting somewhere in the account properties to forward (not copy) an account to another host and NOT store it locally? I'm thinking I saw the somewhere but I can't recall now. I know I can forward the entire domain. This is why I asked a while back what the order of operations is in Qmail. If it processes smtproutes before local accounts or after.
