I've got a small problem, maybe someone had a similar case and can
share a solution.

I have an old, outdated email alias [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is
maintained by a provider. The alias points to an account on my server
and forwards all mail to it. This alias is also part of a group alias
called [EMAIL PROTECTED] (so if anyone sends something to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], it's resent to my address and a couple of
others).

I don't use this address anymore but some people still write to me to
this address, both the single one (tonid) and the group one
(redakcja). I'd like to be able to inform them about the change of
addresses and request confirmation (since also a lot of spam comes to
these aliases, really a whole big lot...).

The problem is that if someone sends mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED],
in my logs it shows an envelope-sender of
[EMAIL PROTECTED], and... this is an alias to an
inexistent mail account, so a reply to it generates a bounce back to
me...

I was trying to create a confirm autoresponse for all people that
write to this outdated address, but I can't, since all confirmation
requests go to this inexistent alias [EMAIL PROTECTED] as
this is the envelope-sender, and not to the address in "From"!...

I was trying to find a way to set up TMDA for this account so that all
replys go to the address in "From:" and not to the envelope-sender,
but I failed to find such an option 8///...

Any ideas on how to get around this?...
