Hi Stan
Thanks for the response, please excuse the noobieness
If I add the domain to Exim's domains then email never gets to
Roundcube (and therefore I presume Dovecot), which defeats the
client's purpose'
If I can find a way to make Dovecot automatically read a sieve script
in the (virtual) users mail directory then I can figure the rest.
Kind regards
Julian
I'm trying to configure Dovecot to automatically forward mail to
another
account without the virtual user having to log-in first to
Roundcube web
mail. These are virtual users with no log-in to the server only
Roundcube's web interface The situation is that I have two domains
only
who want to receive email at their domains, get a forwarded copy at
their hotmail account, then log-in to Roundcube to reply.
Your MTA (Exim in this case, it seems) must already be aware of
these virtual
user addresses since it accepts mail for them. Adding a BCC to your
MTA
config for these virtual users is the proper way to do this, not a
sieve
script. Not sure about Exim, but it's brain dead simple to do this
with
Postfix' recipient_bcc_maps. Since this occurs at the MTA level,
users don't
have to be logged in and it's fully automatic. It's not a 'forward'
but an
automatic blind carbon copy to the specified address.
