mail forward duplicate
« on: April 12, 2008, 12:29:34 PM »
Hi,

I used to run sendmail and /etc/aliases allows me to forward from multiple users to one single user without duplication. This is a very important feature for us because the boss needs to monitor emails from all staffs and a lot of the times multiple staffs receive the same email.

I tried fastforward and edited /etc/aliases and .qmail-default. It is not working. How could I activate fastforward?

I hope maildrop could help me but I don't know how to activate it also under sme server.

I have been searching the web the whole day but couldn't figure this out. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Conrad

sme has as feature like this
do
config show qpsmtpd

review entries for
Bcc
BccMode
BccUser

Search these forums on maillog to find out the usage, which are basically (from memory) create the maillog user and then enable Bcc with db command, followed by email-update event.

Thanks for your suggestion. But unfortunately this only forward to one single user. I have several superiors who need to monitor emails of their corresponding staffs.

Could somebody help on configuring maildrop on sme server? Thanks...

Well you only mentioned from "multiple users to one single user without duplication" previously.

How about this then.
In each user account in server manager, configure Email delivery to "both deliver locally & forward" and send a copy to the corresponding boss.
