My router is as follows:

hcadigital.com = dsl092-115-164.nyc2.dsl.speakeasy.net
styleexpo.com = dsl092-115-164.nyc2.dsl.speakeasy.net

Remove these two lines. They will map all addresses in these two domains to local addresses.


;

You don't need the ";" -- you can just use a blank line here.


<abuse> = postmaster

<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = postmaster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = postmaster

(since you're not mapping the domains anymore)

<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = tracey
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = styleexpo

Leave these.


I want mail going to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to go through, but mail going
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to bounce as undeliverable. In other words, I
want one email address to match one user only, even though I have multiple
domain names. How do I do this?

Another way to do it is to map each domain with a prefix. (This is what I do.) It would look like this:


<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = hca.*
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = se.*

<*.abuse> = postmaster      ; make sure we catch all postmaster & abuse
<*.postmaster> = postmaster ; emails for all domains

<se.tracey> = tracey        ; optional, if you want the account to be
<se.styleexpo> = styleexpo  ; "tracey", rather than "se.tracey", etc.


Once you start dealing with several domains, the prefix route is usually the best way to go. Some people use postfix notation, but I prefer prefix, as it groups accounts in the account list.
