Using Postfix always_bcc


Hello,

I have a question using Postfix always_bcc parameter,

Sceneario:

If a create the local account: mirror@localcompany.com and if I set
always_bcc = mirror@localcompany.com in my main.cf,

Would all mail relayed in and out my server be cached in this account?

... and I mean all mail received for local accounts and all mail sent out by local accounts?

I will apreciate any help.

Thank you very much. ;--)

I just want to warn you if you use that feature, the original recipient of the e-mail messages might notice something odd about his e-mails when he looks at from: and to: fields.
The from field stays the same but because of bcc the to: field is now blank.
If you get such a message within Gmail it would even tell you underneath "to undisclosed recipients" which can raise suspicions in some users.
