Hello,

I have searched the procmail FAQs, the archived replies to this
mailing list, and the web, and I have failed to find an answer to this
question.  I'd be much appreciative if you could help me out.

I administer a small web site for a non-profit organization.
We would like to be able to allow our volunteers to have
yourname(_at_)OurOrganization(_dot_)org email addresses that forward to their
existing private email accounts.

    This has been discussed many times in the past, and the conclusion
has always been that doing it in Procmail is a losing battle.  The right
way to handle this is to add aliases for your users in your MTA.  This
would be far more efficient than having Postfix figure out where to send
messages, and it would take care of all problems you describe.

    Regards,
