Hi Again
What would be the best way to stop this form happening, is there a way i can
stop it from ignoring the bit with the hyphen so it realises its a non-existent
user?
Best way? Recompile vpopmail without the --enable-qmail-ext flag.
Otherwise, the man page explains it and how it's processed:
EXTENSION ADDRESSES
In the qmail system, you control all local addresses of the form
user-anything, as well as the address user itself, where user is
your account name. Delivery to user-anything is controlled by the
file homedir/.qmail-anything. (These rules may be changed by the
system administrator; see qmail-users(5).)
The alias user controls all other addresses. Delivery to local
is controlled by the file homedir/.qmail-local, where homedir is alias___
s home directory.
In the following description, qmail-local is handling a
message addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED], where local is controlled by
.qmail-ext. Here is what it does.
If .qmail-ext is completely empty, qmail-local follows the
defaultdelivery instructions set by your system administrator.
If .qmail-ext doesn___t exist, qmail-local will try some default
.qmail files. For example, if ext is foo-bar, qmail-local will try
first .qmail-foo-bar, then .qmail-foo-default, and finally
.qmail-default. If none of these exist, qmail-local will bounce the
message.
