Where does mail go for incorrect address

Can someone help?
Suppose I have a scalix mail server running on test.domain.com, if someone sent an email to person@test.domain.com provided it is an invalid email address. Where does the mail go in the server?

Hi,

it does not go anywhere. If it is an unknown address in both Scalix and sendmail, it will be bounced back to the sender.

Cheers,

Sascha.

if you need to collect that mail somewhere, you'll need to configure a CATCHALL user. search this forum for CATCHALL and you should find what you need.

thx,
