This is more or less what I have, but it does not achieve my goal. I have a
single mailbox, M, from my ISP with two aliases X and Y (in the form of
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I want these to be delivered to x and y
(shortenings of our first names) on my linux box. Y's mails are always
adressed only to Y, but X receives mails from various listservs etc.
I thought the way to do it was to run fetchmail as deamon from rc.local with
/etc/.fetchmailrc
poll mail.tvd.be proto pop3 nodns
user M with password P is * here
fetchall forcecr keep to * here
and have a .qmail-X pointing to x and .qmail-Y pointing to y in ~alias. But
this does not deliver the results. What would you recommend?
