Sorry for not giving the examples, but you got the stuff quite well... I did try a virtual like that, and inside relocated i entered: u...@example.com newu...@newexample.com But it didn't work: newu...@newexample.com gets the e-mail sender gets the "User has moved..." message u...@example.com DOES NOT get the message (this is what i need, much more than forward the message to newuser) One added difficult (or maybe i'm just plain wrong), is that when my mailserver tries to connect to the NEW server it will check the domain part of the from address and when it does the DNS lookup it will reject the message because the from domain doesn't match the connection IP (the guys on the NEW side decided not to trust our server).
