redirect all users mail to admin


[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
hello all,
I have just configured postfix and want to do this
All local users when send mail to one another or even outside (yahoo.hotmail,etc) then these mails must be first send to to admin and admin will decide whether to send it to its desired destination or not. How to do that in postfix??

regards

On what criteria do you want to evaluate these messages, receipt from, mail to, attachments, size?

This would be a tedious task for anyone? Perhaps you should look into setting up mailman with a lists type setup. But why go thru all this trouble? If these are personal email accounts, I would think doing this is an invasion of the persons privacy. Having an admin approve each and every email is something I would not tolerate myself and only delays my email getting to its destination.

hi all,
I know how to send all users mail to send to root account of the same domain as users. But just dont know how to stop the mail there. Cant resist the mail at root account, it goes in both the destination and to root acct.
Do anyone know how to do that?
regards
