XMail Forum > Documentation and Knowledge Base > Not receiving BCC mail from external pop server

Posted by: andrejansen May 6 2004, 12:17 PM

Hi there

Everything on my X-mail 1.17 server is working fine. I can send and receive mail interaly and externaly.

I have noticed that when a mail arrives at the external pop and the only feild that is filled in is the BCC field, the X-mail server does not pull that mail off the external server.

Does anyone have any sugestions

Kind regards

Andre

Add Bcc to FetchHdrTags in server.tab:

QUOTE

[FetchHdrTags]
Set the list of headers tags to be used to extract addresses from
POP3 fetched messages ("POP3LINKS.TAB"). This is a comma delimited
list (no extra space or TABs must be included inside the list) as
in:

"+X-Deliver-To,To,Cc"

Tags preceded by a '+' character make XMail stop scanning when an
address is found inside the header tag.

Tags preceded by a '+' character must be listed before other tags.

The string "+X-Deliver-To,To,Cc" is the default if nothing is
specified.

Hi Herald

I have checked in the server.tab file and the Bcc filed was added there in the Fetch Header Tag. The problem is still there. No mail is pulled form the ISP when there is only an address that is valid on our internal domain.

Please help

Keep in mind that XMail stops scanning on a '+'. So "+X-Deliver-To,To,Cc,Bcc"
will never check a Bcc header, when the mail contains a X-Deliver-To.

So this should do the job:

"X-Deliver-To,To,Cc,Bcc"

Thanks Harald

That sorted the problem out.

Would the server.tab configured in this way work when there is more than one domain that the server is handeling?

Bye

Yes, this works globally.
