Re: [vchkpw] Questions about vdelivermail

Because it was the only way I could think of to forward the message without actually storing it on the qmail server. What I want is it to be virus scanned (happens at smtp level via simscan), and then run through dspam. Is there a simple way to allow a message to go through the .qmail-default file and forward to another server, but not store the message on the qmail server as well. Sorry if I didn't explain it very clearly before and thanks for the reply. AHA! I thought as much.

Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, I've never really needed to worry about this type of delivery before. Love responding to myself...yes, this is exactly how it works. Thanks to both Tom and Kyle for their help. My DSPAM system is doing exactly what it should, and the users have full access to the CGI program. Regards, Tren

I'm wondering how it would be possible to make this work, as I do not want any email actually stored on this server, but I do need the accounts on the server so users can authenticate to the dspam cgi program. Suggestions would be appreciated. I'm pretty confident it can be made to work. ~Kyle -- Genius may have its limitations but stupidity is not thus handicapped. -- Elbert Hubbard signature.asc Description: Digital signature
