I have an ezmlm qmail server for lists that deliver to user accounts

servers that serves the @mydomain.edu accounts,
using smtproutes:
mydomain.edu:10.1.2.1

I am being asked to also send all of the output that ezmlm sends to
mydomain.edu accounts to a second, off-brand, server at 10.1.2.2 (being
used for testing). The off-brand server has all of the accounts in
question setup and receiving at the same domain addresses as is being
handled by 10.1.2.1. The off-brand server is not mentioned in DNS as
serving the domain, you get there specifically by address.

Is there any way to configure the ezmlm server so that it will deliver
all messages for @mydomain.edu to the same targeted address at both
10.1.2.1 and 10.1.2.2? Qmail-tap won't do it because the target address
would have to be a wild card, not a specific account.
Thanks for any ideas.

Perhaps you could modify the .qmail file to deliver to two places. There's a bug in qmailadmin that occasionally modifies the .qmail file such that duplicates are delivered, albeit to the same mailbox. Perhaps you can do something similar, sending a copy to the 2nd server. Having the same account/domain name as the main host could be problematic, but you might figure a way to make it work.

You might also modify the taps patch such that it would substitute the account name from the matched address when a target account name is not provided. ?

Let us know how you make out with this. Sounds interesting.
