Hi all

I am in need of help for the following situvation

i am having remote mailbox for 25 users..

now i need some additional users for my org...

i am running linux AS 3.0 Server

what i am want is all mails to my existing mail id's like xxxx@xxx.com will

come..

if there is no id in my xxx.com then it will come to admin@xxx.com

external server.. so it will come to admin@xxx.com. after retrive the mail

to my local server, i want to redirect this mail to xyz@localhost.com

i want script for this work.

You need to set up a catchall on the remote site to forward to admin@xxx.com, then you'd need a parser to grab the headers from the email at admin, and compose a new message for local delivery to the user.

Is there a reason this is needed? It seems like a bit of a hack, prone to failure.

Mail Forwarding

So, just parse the incoming emails and rebuild mail messages for the new local users. It all depends on the exact formats of the headers coming in to your server.
