I'm in a similar situation. I have a small network attached to DSL and a
single dynamic ip setup on a LinkSys router. All the internal boxes are
configured using IPs in 192.168.x.x. The RH7.0 box is used for a webserver
and mail gateway using sendmail. Since the system is dymanic, I'm using
Dyndns.org to simulate a static system.
The problem: I have a domain. The registrar provides mail and URL
forwarding. BUT...all the mail forwarding goes to a single e-mail address.
When the mail arrives for 4 different users into the same mail spool, can
Sendmail place the mail into the correct mailboxes? Is there some other
method of distributing mail from a single spool file?
