As said before, in this case I only use postfix programs. I do not use any external programs. What is happening is that the postfix server receives the message on port 25, via ESMTP, then delivers it via the the alias file to a list of recipients, recorded in the file /some/file/in/the/filesystem, which is included via a line in /etc/postfix/aliases : listname: :include: /some/file/in/the/filesystem Best regards keld
