hello,
I am trying to fetch mail from out ISP and divide it on our lan to the
correct users.
We have only 1 mailbox with several aliases.
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should go to els
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should go to jan
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should go to theo
mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should go to els and jan
After several days of reading man pages and googling i still haven't been
succesfull.
what i have done so far
-installed fetchmail
-installed exim4 and configured it to send using smarthost and receive using
fetchmail
-configured outlook express on client machines.
.fetchmailrc:
set postmaster "jan"
set no bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
poll smtp.ourisp.nl with proto POP3 interval 300
aka ourisp.nl localdomains ourdomain.nl
user 'jan' there with password 'secret' to j.jansen=jan e.fox=els
th.jansen=theo here options keep
All messages now go to the postmaster, when i send a mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] then fetchmail gives an error 'unknown user'.
When i send a mail to theo using 'echo "test" | mail -s "testmsg" theo' then
it is received ok on the client machine.
i have tried running fetchmail as root and as user, results are the same.
I do not understand the relation between the various programs involved in
this very well.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
thanks,
Marco.
