Hi! everyone.
I'm trying to create an alias to one of the user but it just would'nt work.
on the aliases file i put the ff.
sample:
* aliases file
...
...
root: user1, user2
webmaster: user1, user2 *(this is the alias i want to
setup)
...
...
if i test it on the local server and just mail to webmaster, it works the two
users both receive
the mail. but when i put the whole e-mail address, it just goes to first
user(user1).
mail webmaster ...ok
mail webmaster@mail.domain.com ...works ok too.
mail webmaster@domain.com ... only goes to user1
on ohter client using eudora:
To: webmaster@mail.domain.com ...works ok too.
To: webmaster@domain.com ... only goes to user1
btw,
mail server: mail.domain.com
web server: web.domain.com
on our dns server: domain.com
@ IN SOA ns1.domain.com. admin.domain.com. (
1999020310 ; Serial
10800 ; Refresh
1800 ; Retry
604800 ; Expire
86400 ) ; ttl
IN NS ns1.domain.com.
IN NS ns2.domain.com.
IN MX 20 ns2.domain.com.
IN MX 10 ns1.domain.com.
IN MX 1 mail.domain.com.
IN A 192.168.2.11
mail IN A 192.168.2.8
web IN A 192.168.2.11
www IN CNAME web.domain.com.
...
...
everything works except for this alias webmaster. is there something special
with webmaster?
or is it possible to redirect all mail to a particular alias or user directly
w/o using aliases?
one more thing, even if i removed webmaster on the aliases,
it still goes to user1.
thanks in advance.
regards to all,
nino.
