GroupWise has an odd way to handle aliases - and i works very wiered some = times ....=20
The trick is here that both the username and subdomain are altered .. that = will say the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] And so on ... And so on ... And so on ... And so on ... If it just was the domain portion of the mail adress .. it would easy like = going to bed and sleep ... ;-) best regs Kenneth >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 28-07-2003 21:29:53 >>> At 15:18 7/28/2003, Kenneth Mogensen wrote: >It s not in the same e-mail system, we are running for our main e-mail, = =3D >calendar, workgroup, booking and so on, are we running Novells GroupWise. = =3D >But the alias function in that product does not fullfill our needs; So we = =3D >wanted to set xmail in between the ingoing mails, so that the users still = =3D >receive mails from the old adresse (Via xmail and redirection), and when = =3D >they send mail it will be with there brand new e-mail adresses, that are = =3D >handle by Novells GroupWise. So, XMail will be handling the old email addresses and the old domain, = but=20 Novell GroupWise handles the new one... Does Novell GroupWise have adequate aliasing? If so, you could set up = XMail=20 so that it simply redirects all mail for the old domain to the new = domain,=20 then let GroupWise handle the aliasing of the user's mailboxes.... If so, you could simply set up a custom domain on the XMail machine and = let=20 it handle forwarding the mail. Assuming the old domain is foo.bar and = the=20 new domain is bar.net, you would add a foo.bar.tab file to the=20 <mailtroot>\custdomains folder, and in the foo.bar.tab file have a line=20 such as: "redirect" "bar.net" (Note the quoted strings are separated only by a TAB character, no spaces) If the aliasing of GroupWise isn't up to handling this, I'll dig deeper - = I=20 know there's something in here that will do it...:)=20 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
