Pete,
The only way your gonna achieve this is to contact YAHOO (probably at the
home page), and set up a dot forward function on that mail account. This
will instruct Yahoo to forward the messages bound for [EMAIL PROTECTED] to
another mail account (which you will specify).
Configuring QMAIL as you are attempting to do will have no effect. DO NOT
attempt to research and configure a DNS to approach this problem.
Attempting to "masquerade" as YAHOO.COM will get you in a heap of trouble,
not to mention cause a lot of trouble on the internet.
Regards,
Tom

Hi folks!
I would like to know how can I make the address '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
local and to be delivered to the user joe(@localhost).
I've tried this config:
/users/assign
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:joe:503:78:/home/joe:::
/control/locals
[..]
yahoo.com
# silly ain't it?
/control/rcpthosts
[..]
yahoo.com
/control/virtualdomains
fixme:fixup
:alias-ppp
I don't run a dns server.
This way joe gets the message but all the yahoo can't be local, right ;)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Peter
BTW I would like to congratulate the person who wrote LWQ. It's the best
doc I've ever read.
