I am using FreeBSD v2.1 with sendmail & the POP3 Mail server. Now everything works fine e-mail can be sent & received but if someone outside is to send mail and make a mistake with the users alias the mail will not find its way to the Postmaster. ie. r~ss@astrac.com also how can I give a user a detailed e-mail ID. example:- currently:- russ@astrac.com would like to be:- russ.mills@astrac.com Thanks.... -- Russell Mills Tel (+44) 0113 258 5288 Fax (+44) 0113 258 8304 E-Mail russ@astrac.com
