I use a mail forwarding service, so my mails (to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) goes first to iki.fi. From there they are forwarded a server on a company I work for. I download them from there by fetchmail. The recipient address is lost and I get it by searching "received for" headres on the mail... quite complicated and seems like it cannot be made foolproof :-( So when the messages are feed back to postfix on my computer, they will be delivered again to iki.fi, where they start another round... Some mails cause problems: if a mail is sent to me and one or more recipients in iki.fi, the recipient address is not available. I have not tried, but I quess that if there is an alias extracting to several email addresses, the second round would go to all of them. I mean, if there is a following line on /etc/aliases group_a : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think an email sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would go to both user1 and user2 at the second round. Not sure, thought... - -- Send replies to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/X0G7uA3ghgc3fUsRAsE2AKCh0z1TVYtz2c442SFkX9RenN3wIACeImb3 pFGarTFXHhr8DkEYISRQQzY= =YtVh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _________________________________________________ tmda-workers mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-workers
