Re: [vchkpw] Trouble using maildrop filter & fastforward

[Morten Rønseth]

Thanks,

Changing VPOPCMD to

VPOPCMD="/home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

and using xfilter solved the case. Also, found some great examples at
"http://mymail.alien77.com/maildropMEGAEXAMPLE";.

Cheers,

-Morten

Now, if mail is sent to an account using the exact account name, mail is delivered as it should be. However, If I send mail to an account using an alias (via fastforward), mail doesn't get delivered. Why? I'm using

VPOP="| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

which is the same as in the (old) .qmail-default file. The mail-filter is chown'ed vpopmail:vchkpw and the log file says local delivery is delivering "...to local <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
But nothing ever arrives.

its probably the same thing we noticed for forwards set through qmailadmin by users (.qmail in user dir). you can probably go around this using (credits go to lola)
xfilter "$VPOPCMD"
exit

instead of to "$VPOP". I dont know the real reason but it looks if maildrop terminates before the mail is successfully forwarded?

I add the maildrop script I use now below just for people with similar problems searching the archives
