I'd like to have xmail forward e-mail (on a per-user basis) and also retain a copy in that user's mailbox.

I'm pretty sure that I need to use a mailproc.tab entry, but could really use some help in getting started.

Yes, you need to work with mailproc.tab to achieve that.

inside /<path_to_your_mailroot>/Mailroot/domains/mydomain.com/user/

simply create "mailproc.tab" and put something like this inside:

CODE

"mailbox"[RETURN]
"redirect"[TAB]"destination@otherdomain.com"[RETURN]


[RETURN] = newline
[TAB] = tab character

The "mailbox" entry tells XMAIL to save the file inside user folder before redirecting.

Hope this helps

I've got the opposite problem, for one mailbox I have all mail redirected and no "MAILBOX" directive, but mail is still retained in the mailbox folder.

My mailproc.tab:

redirect [tab] a@b.com
redirect [tab] c@b.com

Same setup works fine for other boxes. All three mailboxes are on the same domain.

Permissions on the tab file look OK. Even checked the tab file in a hex viewer for dodgy chars and can't see anything wrong.

I've used xmail for a long time but never had this problem, and haven't touched the software for ages (v1.25 on Win2k3).

Any ideas anybody?
