Hi All,
Can anyone help me out with the following situation? A littile bigger mail, sorry! but can't help!!
The Scenario: My mail server is in US of A. I have two locations here in Mumbai Have two multi-drop mailboxes for each location on the US server. Two locations have local linux mail servers, which fetches their respective multi-drop mailboxes from US server and distribute locally.
The domain at US server: domainname.com The domain for the server at first location: domainname.com The domain for the server at first location: domainname.com (the same, this is done so that the local mails will be distributed locally.)
The mails are delivered using virtusertable. the mails for the users at other location are forwarde to the US server using www.domainname.com (www is specified in the local DNS as the ip of US serever (using @domainname:%1@www.domainname.com)
The mails at both the locations are fetched using fetchmail.
The Problem: When the mails at one location r fetched having the following header: To: user_at_location1@domainname.com, user_at_location2@domainname.com (no problem of the TO: has all users for the same location )
The mail for first user is dropped locally, while fetchmail is delivering a mail to second user also, which with the help of virtusertable is sent again to the US server (P.S.: user two already has received his copy of mail)
Sometimes the mails r roaming in the following manner. location1 <-> US_Server <-> location2 <-> US_Server <-> location1
I know this is a fetchmail problem, that to cos of the multidrop mailbox, but can't help myself, can anyone??
Anil
