The smtp server can be used from anywhere because all users are required to authenticate with SMTP AUTH and it supports TLS. This is using sendmail 8.14.2. What I would like to do is have any mail submitted to the SMTP server to get automatically stored into an imap mailbox (I'm using mbox format currently) for that user, preferably based on the username they supplied to authenticate, but it could also be by the 'mail from:' field. Previously I have been configuring the users mail clients to do this, but they have proven completely unreliable and of course they may use different clients at different locations etc. Obviously having the server do this is still not 100% reliable, since they could still possibly use a different SMTP server, but I'm not going to worry about that currently as it's unlikely to happen often. It's sort of an unusual thing to have the MTA do, so I'v not been able to find anything about how I can get this to happen.. I thought maybe there might be a way to get the sent mail to be processed through procmail or something first.. Any thoughts on the best way to make this happen? Cheers, J.
