I've seen email addresses comprised of the following... user.mailID@domain.com How do you set up sendmail (or BSD) to accomodate such an address? How can the mail get to mailID@domain.com but still retain the user.mailID as the header? I have a user that wants to pull all mail from his mailID address and then have his machine on his network send it to the user. So, the mail will be recived by domain.com under the name mailID. User mailID will log in and pop the mail to his server. Then, use local software to send it to the individual user on their network. TIA. Alan Schneider
