Hello, I have Postfix running in a test server; I have the installation set for Maildir delivery using virtual accounts (virtual mailboxes-non existing linux accounts) and I am able to send and receive e-mails. I am looking for a way to make Postfix deliver an e-mail to two (or more if specified) Maildir (s) at the same time; for example, I have set two directories for virtual-mailbox delivery: /vmail/examplehost.com/angel/ /vmail/examplehost.com/mark/ My goal is to have Postfix deliver an e-mail for [email protected] to both directories! I have the next parameters in Postfix's main.cf configuration file: virtual_mailbox_base = /vmail virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/virtual_mysql_map.cf In MySql table I have: mail-----------------------------------------destination [email protected]/angel/ [email protected]/mark/ This and the rest of the configuration is working fine, but I just can't get to a solution for what I want to do. I try inserting in the table's destination field: examplehost.com/angel/, examplehost.com/mark/ but the virtual daemon does not like that. I have also tried the Postfix's parameter in main.cf: virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual_alias but this parameter's conventions are: [email protected] [email protected] and not [email protected] test.com/test/ (as in virtual_mailbox_maps) I will extremely apreciate help for this issue. Thank you Angel.
I dont see why virtual_alias_maps will not work because the users maildir is not a different one from the default i mean if you want to deliver the same mail to two mail boxes belonging to two users its simply an aliasing issue.
Thank you for your reply topdog! so if virtual_alias_maps should be able to do the job, it would mean that having the next entry for this parameter: [email protected] [email protected] ... will make Postfix drop a copy of an email in /vmail/examplehost.com/angel/ and deliver another copy in /vmail/examplehost.com/mark/ without erasing the first copy dropped? If this is the case my issue is solved. once again thank you. any comments/help/suggestions are welcome.
