There's not a whole lot to it IIRC, although it's not exactly normalized.

Wait a second though. When you say things are mis-delivered, something just occurred to me. Have you checked the message headers of those alleged mis-deliveries? I've seen cases (spam mostly) where a message appears to be addressed to one person but is in fact delivered to another. That's because there are two different To: addresses in an email message, one one the envelope (which is what's used for delivery), and another on the contents (the message itself, which is what you normally see). These addresses aren't necessarily the same. By looking at the message header, you can see who the message is actually addressed/delivered to. I'd check this first to be sure that there's really a mis-delivery.

Sounds to me like the vpopmail database might have something amiss. I'd
have a look at the corresponding records there. phpmyadmin is a nice
tool for browsing around (and more!) mysql databases.

Hi Guys



Ive been having this issue on and off for a while now.



Basically ,ive got a user setup for example [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>, now for some reason someone is sending
mail to (again an example) [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> which is an account that doesn't
exist, but for some reason instead of dropping the mail, its being
delivered to the first guys email address [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>.



I've experienced this same scenario for other users. i.e.
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>.



It seems its matching the first part of the address and delivering it to
the user with the closest address or something, its very strange.



Any ideas anyone?



Best Regards
