Amazing. &nbsp;I never even considered a bcc map on the server end. &nbsp;That looks useful for this particular problem. &nbsp;I'll go test it out and when I get it to work I'll come back and close the question. &nbsp;Thank you in advance.

I'm transferring from sendmail to postfix, and I've come up with this little puzzle<br />
<br />
I currently have a person who wants to have all emails go to a local mailbox to pop, but a &quot;backup copy&quot; also goes to his gmail account. <br />
<br />
In sendmail, this is an easy entry in the mailertable:<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-10-26606010-1">person@domain.com   localbox,person@gmail.com</code></pre>
<br />
But in postfix the local virtual mailboxes go into /etc/postfix/vmailbox, while delivery to external email addresses go into /etc/postfix/virtual.<br />
<br />
So. &nbsp;Where do I split this delivery? &nbsp;Is postfix smart enough that if I have an entry for person@dmain.com in both virtual and vmailbox that it will send a copy of an incoming email to both? Or what else must I do then?<br />
<br />

postfix config - forking delivery to a local virtual mailbox and a gmail account

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
