I do not get your intention: Do you want to receive emails sent to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on your box but have the address rewritten to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>? Or do you want to send email as if they would come from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> although your 'real' address is <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>? In the former case: why? If the email is safely delivered, why change? In the latter case: make use of an appropriate MTA like postfix or so. However, I might have misunderstood your approach completely. Therefore my questions: - roadkill.org : do they deliver email by POP? - or do they simply forward email? wbr, Lukas -- Lukas Ruf | Wanna know anything about raw | <http://www.lpr.ch> | IP? -> <http://www.rawip.org> | eMail Style Guide: <http://www.rawip.org/style.html>| -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
