Hi,
I want to give 'my users' of my Linux-box an Internet valid e-mail address.
Because they only want a e-mail address I don't want to spend money to a extra
PPP-account/user with my ISP and my ISP isn't very Linux minded.
1) Via www.pobox.com I can create aliases let say user1(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com,
user2(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com, ...
2) They redirect all the aliases to my PPP-account (e.g.
account(_at_)ISP(_dot_)com)
3) At my linux box I must split all the messages again to the different users.
user1(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com goes in IN.user1
user2(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com IN.user2
For the moment I'm testing the output in files.
To create a file like I'll get later with POBOX, I sent a message to a few
users and concatinated the mail-files (/var/spool/mail)
The problem is the following :
If someone send a message to user1(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com and
user2(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com
e.g. All the users for whom it concern gets the messages X number of times.
X = number of users for whom it concern. Here 2 times.
The following files are kept in the account who can read e-mail from the
internet :
~/.procmail/rc.testing :
------------------------
:0c:
* ^TOuser1*
IN.user1
:0c:
* ^TO.*user2*
IN.user2
:0c:
* ^TO.*user3*
IN.user3
:0
* ^TO (user1|user2|user3)
/dev/null
~/.forward :
------------
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #user0"
~/.procmailrc :
---------------
VERBOSE=off
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log
