I
have setup a mail-server at my office. I am using RedHat Linux 5.2 for
my mail-server with the sendmail version -
sendmail-8.8.7-20. Now let me tell you as to how i get mails meant
for my office. I have setup this mail-server in india. and my main mail-server
is in the USA. let me call this server as usa-mailserver. This usa-mailserver
recieves all the mails meant for my office from the internet. Now as soon
as it recieves it puts all the mails in a single folder. Now , i have setup
a fetchmail in my india mail-server to fetch mails from this folder.
Everthing is working fine with this setup. Even i am able to recieve the mails from my usa server and i am able to distribute it locally. even my users in india are able to send mails outside
BUT THE PROBLEM IS WHENEVER MY SENDMAIL GETS A UNKOWN ID IT CAN'T DISTRIBUTE THE ( i.e, WHEN SOMEBODY SENDS MAILS TO AN ID WHICH DOESN'T EXIST, OR MISPELLED ID ETC.........) MAIL LOCALLY. FOR THE ID DOESN'T EXISTS!!!!!! AND HENCE MY FETCHMAIL TERMINATES .
MY QUESTION IS WHETHER THERE IS AN OPTION IN SENDMAIL WHERE I CAN SAY THAT IF THERE IS A MAIL WHOSE ID IS UNKOWN OR THE MAIL WHICH THE SENDMAIL CAN'T DISTRIBUTE , IT SHOULD PUT TO A JUNK FOLDER SAY [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ould anyone please help me out in this issue. I need to setup this asap as i am getting lot of mails whose email ID is mispelled.
eagerly waiting for reply....................
