Here is a problems that came up here. We had a user that we wanted to set up
so...
1) He could send mail to anyone
2) Only local folks could send mail to him
3) Externally it would look as if he did not exist
Alias file manipulation didn't work for obvious reasons, but we have since
decided that such protection would be perfect for hiding internal group aliases
( like "all" which we don't have, but you get the picture )
Has anyone tackled this?
Thanks,
Zeke
