RE: Re: [vchkpw] vdelivermail and bounced messages
one solution could be to use "doublebounceto" and write a program to take care of mails, parsing them and trying to find out what to do with it. And finally dump it to domain postmaster or the mailer-deamon or /dev/null depending on what it is... Just a thought, have never tested, not even done some deeper analyzing of the problem... =d0Mi= > Original Message - > Date: 4-Apr-2003 22:25:50 +0200 > From: Chris Manjoine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [vchkpw] vdelivermail and bounced messages > > ok bounces the the default postmaster when the sender is bogus so it > doesn't send twice. > So I guess my problem is how do I get those bounces to goto the virtual > email postmaster and not the default mail server postmaster? > > At 05:00 PM 4/4/2003 +0200, you wrote: > >Hi Chris, > > > >On Fri, 04 Apr 2003 08:35:19 -0600 Chris Manjoine wrote: > > > > > When mail gets sent to a user that does not exist it gets bounced to > > > the user and to the default postmaster not of the domain but for the > > > email server. > > > > > my .qmail.default file says > > > | /usr/home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox > > > >Are you sure the _bounce_ gets directed and delivered to $SENDER _AND_ > >postmaster? > > > >Usually postmaster only gets double-bounces, stating "... but the bounce > >bounced. ..." in the very beginning of the mail. > > > >What makes you assume _qmail_ (and it is qmail handling the bounce, > >vdelivermail only exits '100' to tell qmail delivery agent to bounce) > >doubles the bounce? > >-- > >Pit > > >
Re: [vchkpw] vdelivermail and bounced messages
ok bounces the the default postmaster when the sender is bogus so it doesn't send twice. So I guess my problem is how do I get those bounces to goto the virtual email postmaster and not the default mail server postmaster?

Usually postmaster only gets double-bounces, stating "... but the bounce bounced. ..." in the very beginning of the mail. What makes you assume _qmail_ (and it is qmail handling the bounce, vdelivermail only exits '100' to tell qmail delivery agent to bounce) doubles the bounce? -- Pit
