-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This is what I would do (if they were all qmail vpopmail machines): (this is a UGLY hack... but it'd probably work)
emailserver1.mydomain.com MX (emailserver1) account: user1 emailserver2.mydomain.com MX (emailserver2) account: user2 emailserver3.mydomain.com MX (emailserver3) account: user3 if they are all vpopmail do as follows: each domain has a primary domain of mydomain.com and aliased domain (computer1.mydomain.com e.g. if it was computer1) put in into computer1 .qmail-default |if [ "$HOST" -eq "mydomain.com" ]; then "$LOCAL"@computer2.mydomain.com; fi |if [ "$HOST" -eq "mydomain.com" ]; then "$LOCAL"@computer3.mydomain.com; fi That way you would only forward original emails (and not in a loop) no where would a message from a different machine computer ever end up back at the beginning... you'd would end up with the message going to both machines but maybe with a little more though one could eliminate this. The above item I'm sure WILL NOT WORK as syntax is wrong and I didn't put a lot of thought to it... you'd probably want to offload it to a shell script and put some decent thought into how you want to handle bounces and other things.... just an idea, or you could do it like I do currently on my machine, two servers (well 3 actually), but just run unison to sync the directories. Please don't bash me too hard with my logic I just thought of it right now and I probably forgot something critical which will cause this not to work as I haven't sat down and thought of every possibility.
