mail forward problem in RH71 with procmail or .forward

by Ming H » Thu, 12 Sep 2002 01:19:54

I edited ~/.forward as

Not working.

So I did some research...
Seems sendmail 8.11.6 with RH71 is using procmail not mail for local
delivery thing. So it not reading .forward.

So I edited ~./procmailrc

:0c

still no forwarding.

I wondering if sendmail 8.11.6 on RH71 disabled forwarding for security
and spam reason?

I did the following too

# ln -s /usr/bin/procmail /etc/smrsh

according to redhat faq

/ming

1. mail forwarding problem with ".forward" file

I have a question about adding the ".forward" file in my unix user
directory.

I 'd like all incoming mails forwarded to another address temporarily whilst
I am away but I also want the machine to keep a copy of it for reference
when I return. Does anyone know how to do this? Normally I just put the
forwarding email address in the .forward file but it won't keep a copy of
it.

Thanks.
