My M.U.A. is Mutt-ng devel-r581 (based on Mutt 1.5.11/2005-09-15). I can use another one if necessary. Mutt and muttng allow to use several mailboxes. But does sendmail or permit to use mailbox with name different from user name? That is a question.

Hopefully someone with Sendmail knowledge will chime in and provide the assistance you need. You can use procmail to forward mail to a second mailbox based on the To field. Here's a good tutorial to get you started: http://userpages.umbc.edu/~ian/procmail.html here's another: http://pegasus.rutgers.edu/~elflord/unix/procmail.html And finally, here's the procmail doc project: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pm-doc Hope you find this useful.
