Hi Thanks for the advice. The bug explains it! I was stuck with some remote recipient problem that I should be able to get past now.
Many thanks, Nick.

Unfortunately there is a bug in the version in v2.2.0 so you will need the 2.2.1-RC1 canidate version which can be downloaded from http://cvs.apache.org/dist/james/bin/. > > For example, I would like: > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] to go to the user nick > [EMAIL PROTECTED] to go to the user andy > [EMAIL PROTECTED] to go to the user nick > > I have configured the pop3 connection, but I'm not sure how to set up the link > between the email addresses and the James users. How can I tell James where to send > email from each address? The fetchmail documentation at http://james.apache.org/fetchmail_configuration_2_2.html covers this. Simplest is to define two fetch tasks, one for mckennaconsultants.com and one for kulgan.demon.co.uk. The former would contain <account/> entries for [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED], the latter would contain an <account/> entry for [EMAIL PROTECTED] See http://james.apache.org/fetchmail_configuration_2_2.html#fetchmail%20Example s, "One Account, One User". Once you have the above working you may want to check if the more sophisicated examples documented in subsequent paragraphs are applicable. > > My plan is to connect to James via various mail clients and leave James as my > principle mail store.
