Re: something similar to always_bcc in postfix?

[Alan Cheng]

seems the alias table can do the work, whereas a 'catchall' won't (as it's not 
intended to).
The key part to get it working here is to map each (virtual) user to two 
addresses: a system account (vmail, in my case) to receive emails, andan  
additional address that you want all incoming mails be BCC'ed to.
I need to manually create the alias map for each user, but the number of 
accounts is less than 10 so the manual operationis not an issue for now.
Thanks all again for responding and inspriing.
Here is my config files, in case anyone want to take a reference to:
#=== my smtpd.conf ==pki mail.example.com 
certificate "/etc/opensmtpd/mail.example.com.crt"
pki mail.example.com key "/etc/opensmtpd/mail.example.com.key"

table vdomains file:/etc/opensmtpd/vdomains
table passwd file:/etc/opensmtpd/passwd
table virtual_users file:/etc/opensmtpd/virtual_userss
listen on lo
listen on eth1 port 25 tls pki mail.example.com

in postifx you can do it in the virtualmaps file ...  I had tried doing this in 
OpenSMTPD 
about 1.5 years ago and ended up using OpenSMTPD as the service that listened 
to the outside world and then relay the information to Postfix  which would 
copy and 
forward mail listening on the loopback address, using the virtualmaps in Postfix


edit /etc/postfix/virtual   file

@domain.com        @domain.comrepeat each line for each user of the domain  
after editing the the virtual maps file run the commandpostmap 
/etc/postfix/virtual

using the virtualmaps in PostfixIt worked reliably the only gotcha was trying 
to copy mails for unknown addresses,
 I was not able to pull this off,  as a safety measure wildcard setting at the 
bottom 
of the file for un-known users and this would forward the mail without copying 
(not to interrupt production mailflow)

in postifx you can do it in the virtualmaps file ...  I had tried doing
this in OpenSMTPD
about 1.5 years ago and ended up using OpenSMTPD as the service that
listened
to the outside world and then relay the information to Postfix  which would
copy and
forward mail listening on the loopback address, using the virtualmaps in
Postfix


edit /etc/postfix/virtual   file

emailaddress_to_be_copi...@domain.com

anohter_emailaddress_to_becopi...@domain.com
anohter_emailaddress_to_becopi...@domain.com,root@localhost
@domain.com@domain.com

repeat each line for each user of the domain

after editing the the virtual maps file run the command

postmap /etc/postfix/virtual


using the virtualmaps in Postfix
It worked reliably the only gotcha was trying to copy mails for unknown
addresses,
 I was not able to pull this off,  as a safety measure wildcard setting at
the bottom
