RE: Forward and retain a copy
Hi!, Thanks for the tip. I need to implement something like that, but I only need to send to the remote address the From and Subject of the email. Any idea how to strip that from the message?. We are going to implement an email forward service to cell phones and pagers, so I need only to send that info and not the whole message.

RE: Forward and retain a copy
Is there a way in qmail to forward a copy of an e-mail to another accoutn but still retain a copy on my server for archive purposes. Example [EMAIL PROTECTED] receives and e-mail a copy is sent to thier aol account but mydomain.com's mail server retains a copy. I've always just put the local address and the forward address in the .forward file -- that's never caused a loop so I'm assuming that the MTA knows enough to interpret this as a request to leave a copy in the local mailbox. Of course, that was with sendmail... I don't actually know what qmail does, since I haven't had to use this since I started using qmail. Anybody else? -Stephen-

RE: Forward and retain a copy
Yes, we do this for customers that want a copy of their email, plus a copy sent to a pager, or any other device :) Modify your .qmail file in the home directory, and just put each recipient on a seperate line in the file. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ./Mailbox or whatever format you are storing in.
