Hi.

Bit off topic but here goes:

I need some help with an alias in relation to 2 mailservers.

I have a mail alias set up on one mail server (mailserver1) that sends mail for 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

When I send an email to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' directly I get the right stuff
happening on mailserver2, namely in the maillog (on mailserver2) I see the mail 
is received and replied to (autoreply functionality)
However when I send to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' I see the mail being received in the 
logs (on mailserver2) but not replied to.

/etc/mail/aliases on mailserver1 shows
jobs:          employment

/etc/mail/aliases on mailserver2 shows
employment:        user1

user1's /home/user1/.procmailrc (on mailserver2 machine) has an entry for
employment which as I said above works when directly mailed to, but not when
indirectly mailed to by '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

The recipe for employment in the mentioned .procmailrc (on mailserver2) looks
like this:

:0:
* ^TO_employment |/usr/local/foo/bin/progThatResponds

Why isn't the mail to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' processed correctly?

Thanks for any help.
Kind regards.

Luke.
