However, this feature is disrecommended, since it can break ``working'' addresses if you introduce new local users. If you want to route all mail to unknown users to one account (instead of giving the standard error reply), you can put in your .mc file the following: define(`LUSER_RELAY',`local:someuser@xxxxxxxxxxx') or in some cases: define(`LUSER_RELAY',`local:someuser') Something similar can be accomplished for virtual domains. ============== -- Steve
