Doing multiple deliveries for a single email

Hi all,

I need to be able to deliver an email to both a group and an entry added via omaddent.

Example:

1. email comes in to user@domain.com
2. Email is sent to an external alias added via omaddent -s ...
3. Email is sent to a group for local delivery.

omaddent only seems to allow a single point of delivery, either a user or a group or
an email address. It doesn't seem to allow the ability to deliver to multiple places.

Any ideas?

Hi,

auto actions come to my mind.

Use sxaa from the resource toolkit directory to add forwarding actions for incoming mail. This will allow you to specify as many recipients as you need.

E.g.

sxaa --add --username ssiekmann --redirect mymail@somewhere.com

You can add as many as you like.

Cheers,

Sascha.

So under this idea it has to go to a user first? Is it possible to assign
actions to email groups? Ie something like:

Code: Select all

sxaa --add --username group --redirect external@somewhere.com

You are talking about PDLs.

You need to look at the man pages for omaddpdl and omaddpdl for further information.

Cheers

Just to add some closure for those who come along later:

Code: Select all

omaddent -e 'S=BLAH/...'
omaddpdln -l '/mailnode,domain/CN=NAME' -n '/mailnode,domain/CN=NAME'
