relay email for an individual email address

[Gilad Odinak]

I want to forward all email to user@... to user@...

Where mydomain.com is a domain on my mail server.

I tried to add this to aliases.tab

"mydomain.com" "user" "user@..."

When I connect to themail server, at the rcpt to:<user@...> command I get a relay denied error.

The mail server serves two domains: mydomain.com and myotherdomain.com

"mydomain.com" "user" "user@..."

Does work.


How should I configure xmail to forward emails for a user in mydomain.com to e.g. gmail.com

Hello

I think you should re-read carefully xmail doc as all you need is in the doc
:)

First, you will see that "aliases" can only be done on local mailboxes (can
be on a different domain but the final domain must also be handled by
xmail), so it is normal that your test resulted in error.

- Second, taking a look at mailproc.tab file that can be associated with a
local mailbox to do some specific process.
It permit such redirections :)

In your case, create a real "user@..." mailbox on your xmail
server, then create a mailproc.tab file for this mailbox that must contain
this simple line :
"redirect"[TAB]"user@gmail"[NEWLINE]

It's all ;-)

Is it possible to do this for a whole domain like I want everything
that went to "@oldcompany.com" redirected to "@newcompany.com"?

I just read this and have not looked into the documentation yet as I
am busy with something else at the moment, but I thought you might
already know how to do it :-)

Should be possible, with 'CUSTOM DOMAIN MAIL PROCESSING':

http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#custom_domain_mail_processing

If you create a file named  oldcompany.com.tab  inside the 'custdomains'
subdirectory, containing a line:

"redirect" "newcompany.com"

It should do it.

OK, that was too obvious. I was looking in the wrong places before
like alias and mailproc...

Thanks.
