Title: e-mail server question
Post by: jcspercival on August 16, 2004, 04:27:20 PM
i am hoping to use sme 6.01 as an e-mail server but i would like all e-mails addressed to certain users to be forwarded to a backup address is there any way of doing this? and if so how?

Very easy,
As you create user,  under E-mail delivery, select:
Both deliver locally and forward option.

That's it.

I just checked my 6.0 install and the option is available on the add/edit user pane.

I don't mean to be a cold fish here, but I haven't noticed anyone else reporting this problem. Here are some thoughts:

Have you open the source view in the browser to see if the html is in place but not dispaying correctly?

Are you using a beta release? I am using the 6.0 final release. I have not installed 6.1 yet.

I suppose it may be possible that the html template is screwy but I can't think of a way that would happen if you have followed the simple install methods.[/quote]

So when you go to the users 'Add Users' panel and then select 'modify' for that specific user there isn't a drop down box called 'Email Delivery'? Or is it that it does and the drop down doesn't give you the option to forward and deliver locally?

and i doessn't give the option, could it be a possible problem with a software mirroring raid copy? after it had to re initialise the raid aa couple of months back?

or do you think a screwy install? (damaged file etc)

That does open the door to considering that something got overwritten. I hate to re-install but it may be worth considering.
