Hi All

ASK newbie here....  :-)

We are having trouble setting up ASK

Our server runs RedHat AS, and each username can have multiple email accounts.

For example, you can have username fred located at /home/fred, and email accounts can be:

[email protected]
[email protected]
etc....

In order to login to check mail, you have to enter your full email address as the login name:

login:  [email protected]
pw:     whatever

This enables each username to have true sales@, info@, etc.

Like, /home/wilma

[email protected]
[email protected]

login:  [email protected]
pw:     whatever

/home/barney

[email protected]
[email protected]

login:  [email protected]
pw:     whatever

/home/betty

[email protected]
[email protected]

login:  [email protected]
pw:     whatever

Okay, now to help accomplish this, the mail delivery file is not /var/spool/mail/username

Rather, it is like this:

/var/spool/vmail/fred.com/mail/sales
/var/spool/vmail/fred.com/mail/info

/var/spool/vmail/wilma.com/mail/sales
/var/spool/vmail/wilma.com/mail/info

/var/spool/vmail/barney.com/mail/sales
/var/spool/vmail/barney.com/mail/info

/var/spool/vmail/betty.com/mail/sales
/var/spool/vmail/betty.com/mail/info

--

The 64 dollar question is - how can we get ASK to work in this type of setup?

--

Any help would be most, most, most appreciated. Going crazy on this end  :-))))))))

Thanks  :-)
