What is in your defaultdomain file? If you haven't specified it then it's the same as the server name or the me file. "foo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" works because courier sees there's no domain after "foo" and appends the default domain. Do "makealiases -dump" and you'll see that it doesn't say "foo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" but rather "[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" This does NOT mean any address "foo" will be sent to alias. Courier adds the default domain if you don't specify it. There's no way to say "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" forwards to another account. You've got to list them all separately. You need to make sure that you've got your locals and hosteddomain files set up correctly. Is "bar" your local domain? In which case it needs to be in "locals". If not it needs to be in hosteddomains. If it's neither (you just want to forward mail) then it should be in neither. But regardless it needs to be in esmtpacceptmailfor. What is specified in locals, hosteddomains and esmtpacceptmailfor?
