Yeah, ok, right. When you can get postfix to do this, let us know how you did it. Ted In postfix's main.cf, set always_bcc = [EMAIL PROTECTED] It forwards all incoming and outgoing mail to the address specified. GH OK, so what I did is similar to what Geert recommended. While I was looking up always_bcc, I found the sender_bcc_map and receiver_bcc_map, using the two of those I can specify which accounts to apply that for instead of blindly applying it to the whole site. After I had that working, being one to not leave well enough alone, I set up up a virtual mail address to log these mails and allow us to review them and delete them. For me it meets the overall monitoring requirement, but so burdensome as to make e-mail a pain for them. Thinking this through and speculating a bit, I could come up with a solution similar to the milter which puts stuff into a logfile by defining a transport that does that in the master.cf file. Thanks guys for pointing me in the right direction.

I know with sendmail, this is something as simple as aliasing their account. give them some arbitrary username, and alias that to their email address. alias that email address to you your account.

RE: Parental Controls
There is a sendmail milter that copies all in and out mail to a file which you can of course later review. I would recommend against moderating/approving. You want your monitoring to be as unobtrusive as possible so the kids aren't encouraged to get hotmail or yahoo e-mail accounts and access them from a webinterface at the library, etc. Ted > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Joe Kraft > Sent: Saturday, October 09, 2004 9:09 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Parental Controls > > > I'm looking for some type of parental control that would allow easy > screening of e-mail coming in and out for my kids. > > I'm thinking of something where all inbound and outbound communications > would need to be approved before being sent.

Parental Controls
I'm looking for some type of parental control that would allow easy screening of e-mail coming in and out for my kids. I'm thinking of something where all inbound and outbound communications would need to be approved before being sent. Maybe it could be as easy as having postfix deliver me a copy of what they're sending. From what I've seen, this is a question that tends to drift off topic quickly. Please only technical replies, no philosophical, first amendment, parenting type replies.
