Re: Messages to multiple receivers with aliases

Hello David,

thank you for your response!

As I use a global whitelist for all accounts, I tried your suggestion
too some days ago.
But when [email protected] gets the message forwarded after
confirmation from info@... , he sends out another confirmation request.
And this is done by all users.
Message: Bad confirmation cookie.

So I did the following:
Create a new pop account info@... , protect it by TMDA.
Forward confirmed/whitelisted messages to a new list which has a cryptic 
address.
On this new list, all the users are listed, but not with user1@mydomain, 
but with user1-cryptedstring@mydomain.
Than for each user I created a .qmail-username-cryptedstring file which 
delivers messages directly to their inbox.

I know that spam to username-cryptedstring@mydomain will pass through, 
but I'll give the system a shot :-)

Regards,
Tom
