PROBLEM
I wish to keep a local copy of forwarded mail
ENVIRONMENT
- On-Premise Server + WebMail Installations: Version 6.0 > Current Version
- Webmail Only Installations: Version 6.0 > Current Version
CAUSE
Mail is forwarded but does not save a local copy
RESOLUTION
Some users have expressed interest for the ability for 'Forward' a message and keep a local copy of the email message.
This can be implemented by editing the Exim configure file:
/usr/local/atmail/mailserver/configure |
Locate the following router and add "unseen"
forward_director:driver = redirectdata = ${lookup mysql {MYSQL_FORWARD}{$value}}unseen *** This is the line where you add "unseen" *** |
Next, restart the Atmail server:
/etc/init.d/atmailserver restart |
Users can now define a forwardng address via the WebMail interface. Incoming messages will be diverted to the external account, and a copy of the email stored locally.
