Re: POP mail questions



You need to 

1) Stop using me as a mail relay.  Any futher attempts at that will result
in mail for your domain being routed to /dev/null unless you ask my
permission first.  I do have a system set up specificly FOR UUCP mail MX
hosting that I can set you up a UUCP over TCP/IP account on if you like
and you can set up an MX record pointing there if you like.

2) set up an alias for sendmail in that user's home directory that calls
smail with a specific config file for that user.
