Hello, I have just set up a VPS on Linode with Postfix and Dovecot.
I am able to send and receive mail as expected, but $home/.forward (which contains two alphabetical-only addresses) is ignored, even with a single address. There is no evidence of forwarding attempts in syslog or mail.log Postfix docs seem to suggest this should "just work". https://www.postfix.org/local.8.html FWIW: $ sudo postconf -d | grep forward allow_mail_to_commands = alias, forward allow_mail_to_files = alias, forward forward_expansion_filter = 1234567890!@%-_=+:,./abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ forward_path = $home/.forward${recipient_delimiter}${extension}, $home/.forward ... Permissions seem to be correct: $ ls -l /home ... drwxr-xr-x 3 user user 4096 Apr 29 19:47 user $ ls -la /home/user -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 48 Apr 29 19:24 .forward Am I missing a trick here? Any thoughts appreciated. Many thanks, Gareth _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
