Do you want the user's email to bounce? To vanish into the bit bucket? To be saved somewhere inaccessible to the user but available for retrieval at some later date? I'm not sure how to manage bouncing, but for the other two situations you would want to create a separate account to deal with the incoming mail and add a line to /etc/aliases to route mail to the user to the separate account. If you want the user's email to go into the bit bucket then you need to either symlink the separate account's mailspool to /dev/null (which may not work, I'm not sure) or set up a .forward file to dump incoming mail into /dev/null. } woody 3.0 } exim 3.35-1woody3 } } Thanks } Tony --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
