Hi Jaspar, > is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], qmail just dumps it > directly into user's mailbox,completely out of the > spam checking task.
My understanding is that when delivering mail, vpopmail looks for these files in the following order: ~vpopmail/domains/domain.com/.qmail-user ~vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user/.qmail ~vpopmail/domains/domain.com/.qmail/default It will process according to the first one it comes across, then stop further checking. So what is happening in your situation, is the .qmail-test file is prcessed by delivering the mail to "user", and then no further processing is done (i.e., it does not then process the mail through the recipient's .qmail* files). As such, Aliases and Forwards will not be processed by spamd. I am not sure why this was done this way, but that the way it is. If I was a coder, I would prolly see if I could change that behaviour myself :-) HTH, Alan Murrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
