quote who=Jared Pritchard hey ppl - our server redirects any email sent to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to my boss, but he wants it to come to me from now on, because the only thing that would ever come from root are basically any errors returned by cron etc. and I am the one that needs to know of those :) hehehe I'm sure this is easy, but I can't find a thing on it anywhere... any ideas? It depends a little bit on which MTA you're running (Mail Transfer Agent, the bit of a mail server that sends and receives mail, but doesn't serve them via client protocols - it might be sendmail, postfix, qmail, exim or one of a few others)... It is fairly likely that if you modify /etc/aliases (verifying that it has a root: [EMAIL PROTECTED] line in it, which you want to change), and run 'newaliases' then it should work. If you're running something that is oddly different to MTA norms (such as qmail), this won't work. :-) Worth figuring out which MTA you're running anyway, so you know what to read up on when you encounter problems in the future. :-) - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2004: Adelaide, Australia http://lca2004.linux.org.au/ W.O.R.K: Weekend Over, Resume the Killings. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
