But that way I am just creating an alias, right ? Because I can“t create a new forward with the same name of an already existent account. With sendmail I was able to create an alias with the same name of an existent user (and even forward it to the same-name user). That was how I did the mail-copying : i create the user, an alias with the same name, and then forwarded the alias to the user (with the same name) and the mailmaster repository.
With Qmail I don't know how to do this easily > Create a forward from the main menu. > Not from the user modification page > > The user mod page creates a .qmail file in > the users Maildir area > > The forward on the main menu creates > a .qmail-forwardname file in the > domain's main directory > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> Whenever I create a forward, either as a user (creating my own forward) >> or >> as postmaster creating a forward on someone account, qmailadmin always >> create the same file : .qmail >> This way, the user can reset the forward. >> >> Am I doing something wrong ? >> >> >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >>> >>>>Hi, >>>> >>>>I would like to have some email accounts copied/forwarded to some other >>>>accounts.
