Re: [Fwd: [Fwd: [Fwd: [fetchmail]Problem with distributing multi-drop E-mails]]]

        So, how does it handle 

        To: ABC(_at_)ozemail(_dot_)com(_dot_)au
        Bcc: localuser(_at_)we-ef(_dot_)com(_dot_)au, 
user(_at_)romte(_dot_)address(_dot_)com

        I think Fetchmail looks at the recieved lines to find the required
recipient address. So therefore you get 

        To: undesclosed-recipients

    Seeing as this post is not getting thru the moderator when I post
from work, I'll post this from home..... my brothers company is getting
desperate and many E-mails sent to postmaster.....
<< message3.txt >>

A 13KB email - couldn't you have truncated it a little?

Anyway, the problem is easy enough to spot:

localdomains we-ef.com.au

Fetchmail will forward misaddressed multidrop messages to postmaster.

and

X-Fetchmail-Warning: recipient address ABC(_at_)ozemail(_dot_)com(_dot_)au 
didn't match
any local name

So, fetchmail knows that we-ef.com.au is the local domain, but the email was
for ozemail.com.au.  Might want to add ozemail.com.au to the localdomains
entry.

That and upgrade from 5.1.0 to something a little more recent, even if
"only" 5.9.0 (the current release is 5.9.11).

    Please don't CC me on anything sent to mailing lists or send
        me email directly unless it's a privacy issue, thanks.
