Thanks for all the help!! Ahhh, this setup will not work for that. You need a different tool to do what you want...like procmail. Install procmail, then in /etc/mail/virtusertable: @domain.com user Then in user's home directory, make a file called .forward. In it put this exact line: "|/usr/local/bin/procmail -m .procmailrc" In .procmailrc, add rules to inspect the TO: part of the message and send it to the appropriate real account. See procmail help for more info. Of course, there are other tools to do it as well. Nick Rogness <nick@rogness.net> - Keep on Routing in a Free World... "FreeBSD: The Power to Serve!"
