That's exactly what I am trying to do. It doesn't work for me.
I send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
abuse is an alias for the postmaster user account.
I have a forward on the postmaster account going to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
E-mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] will never reach [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If I send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], then it will get to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
