RE: Rewrite (.*)@foo.com to \\1@bar.net
Peter, Edward, Thanks for the input on this, I'll be playing with it more today. One important thing I forgot to mention in my last post, is that I'm only a MX for these domains, the customer runs his own server to handle the mail. Normally, I'd just set up an SMTP route to send all the mail to the customer's server, but they're running exchange, and for those who don't know, it's not fun to admin an exchange server when you have hundreds of users to configure to accept mail at dozens of domains (actually only 2 or 3, but still a pain).

RE: Rewrite (.*)@foo.com to \\1@bar.net
Ok, the qmail faq says to put ``| forward $[EMAIL PROTECTED]'' into ~alias/.qmail-default, but that would appear to be for all domains, which I do not want to do. So, I put that line into ~vpopmail/domains/foo.com/.qmail-default, but that resulted in mail being forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] How do I get around this? I'm thinking that it's something in /var/qmail/users/assign, but I'm not sure how to go about doing this. Ideally, I'd like the whole job to be done within /var/qmail, allowing me to remove the domain from vpopmail. In postfix, this is easy stuff with virtualmaps: @domain.com:@otherdomain.com Is there nothing similar in qmail?
