Re: OBSD - imap server

It's my understanding that all you need to do is have Procmail deliver
to directories based on who the email message is to. So;

To do this you need to use MAILER(`procmail'), mailertable and access
along with a procmail script.

-Remove- the domain(s) you wish to use from your local domain list
You can use sendmail -bt and '$=w' to check

In access:
# accept messages for example.com
to:example.com    RELAY

In mailertable:
# deliver messages via procmail script
example.com    procmail:/etc/procmailrcs/example-com.rc

In /etc/procmailrcs/example-com.rc :

# base directory for example.com users' maildirs
BASEDIR=/var/mail/
# sender address
SENDER="$1"
# recipient address, strip domain part
RECIPIENT=`echo "$2" | sed 's/@example\.com$//`

# Remove dangerous characters in recipient's address

:0
* RECIPIENT ? ^^[a-z0-9]+^^
$BASEDIR/$RECIPIENT/

:0
$BASEDIR/CATCHALL/

# end

Use virtusertable to make sendmail knows which addresses in example.com
are "valid":

user1_(_at_)_example_(_dot_)_com !
user2_(_at_)_example_(_dot_)_com !
@example.com    error:nouser User unknown


That procmail script is untested. I looked into this a while back, but
decided to stick with system users for email accounts.


Isn't sendmail great?
