Subject Accepting mail when a mailbox does not exist 19/9/96 8:23 AM
Sorry,
I didn't really make myself clear.
I would like to accept all mail (whether a mailbox exists for the recipient or
not) sent to a domain and store that mail in separate files within a directory
that I specify. I would prefer not to set aliases for mailboxes of any kind.
Thanks for the reply,
Craig.

I do this with the webmaster account at my site. First I create an aliases
in the aliase file like this:
webmaster: michael
Then in my .procmailrc file:
: 0 c:
* ^TOwebmaster
postmaster
The c is not neccessary, but allows me to see the mail and have a record.

Hi all,
Is it possible to accept all mail sent to a machine whether a mailbox on that
exists or not.
For example, I would like to accept mail from
fred(_at_)domain(_dot_)xxx(_dot_)xxx, even if fred does not have a mailbox in
the domain. The mail sent to fred would be accepted and procmail would place
this mail in a file within some directory waiting to be processed at a later
date.
Cheers,
Craig Munday
