hi,
sorry, if this problem is already solved. i searched the mailing list, but didn't find an answer. in fact i only found people having the same problem. i want to set up domain wide mail filtering, so i have the following .qmail-default: | maildrop mailfilter the file mailfilter contains: VPOP="| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox" to $VPOP as you can see, there are no filter rules yet, this is for testing so far. when i send mail to the real email address ( postmaster @ domain.com ) everthing works fine. messages send to an alias ( alias_name @ domain.com ) simply disappear. the logfile has an entry: success: vdelivermail:_valiases_processed/did_0+0+1/ but there is no message in the mailbox (maildir). i am using vpopmail 5.4.3 with mysql enabled and maildrop 1.6.3 any ideas what went wrong? btw: aliases are working fine without maildrop with .qmail-default containing: | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox thanks lola
