You can duplicate emails by extensive use of the /etc/mail/aliases
For example:
in /etc/mail/virtusertable
joe.bloggs@example.com aliasenamehere
in /etc/aliases
aliasenamehere: emailaddress1, emailaddress2, usrename1, username2
You can even have overlapping alias and usernames if you want to, the alias takes precedence
for example: in /etc/mail/virtusertable
joe.bloggs@example.com joebloggs
in /etc/aliases
joebloggs: joebloggs, emailaddress2, usrename1, username2
In this second example the joebloggs in the virtusertable is interpreted as the alias by sendmail In /etc/aliases, the "joebloggs:" part is interpreted as the alias referred to by the virtusertable and the "joebloggs," is interpreted as the username

Hi,
I posted this query a few weeks ago but never received a response. I'm guessing that I didn't put things right, so here is another go.
The company that I work for currently has email addresses in the format of:-
firstname.surname.ext@example.com
Which we use for various marketing campaigns (therefore the .ext bit is variable).
Currently we have this setup as distribution lists with exchange so that any email that goes to this addressess goes both to the sales person and to a catch all mailbox which is then input into our systems.
I was wondering if it would be possible so that when an email is received to this format of address it automatically determines where to send it as follows
An email comes into joe.bloggs.sa...@example.com this then gets split so that it is delivered to joe.blo...@example.com and also s...@example.com.
I think that i have figured out how to rewrite to the second address but how can I get it to send it to the new address as well. I was hoping there would be a way of doing this automatically so that we don't have to setup these addresses for every new starter and they apply on a global basis.
Hopefully that explains better what I am after.
