You might be better served posting your questions regarding Postfix and Dovecot on their respective forums. You supply no configuration documentation and since my crystal ball is out for repairs, assisting you is mostly guesswork. You should start off by supplying the output of: postconf -n dovecot -n I would hold off on using Procmail until you get the rest of the system up and running. In fact, IMHO, I would hold off on using Procmail totally. Tip: Use Postfix as your delivery agent for starters. Once the mail is getting delivered properly, integrate Dovecot into the mix. --=20 Gerard gerard@seibercom.net Winter is nature's way of saying, "Up yours."
