Dear Philip,
The person who can change the forwarding address should become the
envelope sender. If the sysadmin is the one who setup the procmailrc,
then he or she should be the one to receive bounce message. Done
correctly, he or she should be able to filter them into a dedicated
folder so that he or she can process them in bursts (which they will
probably come in).
For example, let's say that email sent to the address
"bouncee(_at_)v-domain-server(_dot_)com" will come to the notice of the
sysadmin.
Then, the recipies that handle the virtual domain addresses would add a
"-f bouncee(_at_)v-domain-server(_dot_)com" to the action line:
:0
* (^TO|for)(_dot_)*monica(_at_)lewinsky(_dot_)com
! -f bouncee(_at_)v-domain-server(_dot_)com billy(_at_)house(_dot_)gov
that's great. I tested it and it works. How would it be possible to insert
the mail sender (from-line in the header) after the -f?
Believe me, although I agree generally with you, there are applications
where it is really better so return the mail to the sender.
