Hi,

I have just created some new accounts. This new accounts were intended as a backup email account for the other accounts.
For example my existing accouts are bob and john. And my new accounts is bob1 and john1. I want bob1 to receive the 
same messages as bob and so john1. 
I did this by manipulating the aliases file like this ->    
   bobg: bob, bob1
   johnm: john, john1

And then I replaced newly created /var/mail/bob1 file with /var/mail/bob file.

But, what happened is, I got this error message from the popper daemon when I tried to retrieve messages for account bob1:
   unable to process From lines  (envelopes), change recognition modes
    
Here is my software specification
   OS: FreeBSD 3.4 RELEASE
   MTA: Sendmail Pro 8.9.3
   POP3D: popper

I really appreciate if someone could give some advise or assist me to solve this problem.


Thanks,


Paijo
