[courier-users] Auto creation of home dir on first mail and/or logon to imap/pop3

2004-09-26 Thread Stian B. Barmen
I am setting up a mail hosting solution with a simple SQL+PHP interface but
I need to make a sudo script (kinda like quica does it) to make the users
home dirs. 

Could this be automated like postfix does it? When the user receives a
welcome mail or at the first logon he/she will get the home dir and mail
dirs automatically made. 

Hope this is possible. 

Thanks in advance. 

Best regards
Stian B. Barmen

You don't.  That's the point of a *local* domain.  When d1.com and 
d2.com are both in 'locals' then there is no '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and no 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.  There is only 'u1' and 'u2'.  It doesn't matter which 
domain is used; u1@any-local-domain is always delivered to the user 'u1'.

You need to redo these domains as hosteddomains.  In that case 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' are two separate accounts since the domain 
is now part of the account name.

Read the DESCRIPTION section of the 'makehosteddomains' man page for an 
explanation of how this works.  I think that what you really want is 
hosted domains, not local domains.

Re: [courier-users] common alias between two local domains - how?

You really should set these two domains up as hosteddomains if this is 
going to happen very often, as others have explained.  However, if you 
don't want to redo your domains as hosteddomains for just this account 
then you could also use a .mailfilter file if you are using maildrop to 
deliver your mail.  Create the file '.mailfilter' in the HOME directory 
for the support user and then put the following in it.

import RECIPIENT
if ($RECIPIENT eq '[EMAIL PROTECTED]')
  to ! [EMAIL PROTECTED]
if ($RECIPIENT eq '[EMAIL PROTECTED]')
  to ! [EMAIL PROTECTED]
else
  ./Maildir
This should redirect all the mail for the support address at those two 
domains to the proper addresses.  Anything else will be delivered locally.

Again, you'll need to use maildrop as your delivery agent in order for 
this to work.  Check out the 'maildropfilter' man page for the proper 
syntax if you want to change this around.

how do you know that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is wrongly addressed?
