Virtual Mail Hosting in a Single Inbox

From Dina Yazbeck on Tue, 11 Jan 2000

Dear Sir

I am basicaly trying to host a domain and have all the emails of the users of this domain (remotedomain.com) sent to one particular mailbox (such as remotedomain@myisp.net) This is straigh forward. Assuming that the remote domain machine (LINUX) polls the ISP server. What is the procedure to use to retrieve this mail and distribute it the respective mailboxes of the users mail boxes. Waiting for your reply.

Thank you.

Personally I despise this method of virtual mail hosting, and I won't do it to my friends and customer (nor would I let an ISP do it to me).

However, you can read the Fetchmail FAQ for too much information on this.
