To deliver joe.bloggs.sa...@xxxxxxxxxxx to joe.blo...@xxxxxxxxxxx and
s....@xxxxxxxxxxx do this:
in /etc/mail/local-host-names:
example.com
in
/etc/mail/virtusertable
joe.bloggs.sa.....@xxxxxxxxxxx joe.bloggs
s....@xxxxxxxxxxx
alternate-email-address-or-username-on-this-box-of-"s....@xxxxxxxxxxx"
in /etc/aliases
joe.bloggs:
joebloggs-mailbox-name-here-or-other-email-address, s....@xxxxxxxxxxx
you can combine the virtusertable entry and the alias part for the
s....@xxxxxxxxxxx into one entry... as follows if you prefer
remove the s....@xxxxxxxxxxx
alternate-email-address-or-username-on-this-box-of-"s....@xxxxxxxxxxx"
from /etc/mail.virtusertable
and modify /etc/aliases line as follows:
joe.bloggs:
joebloggs-mailbox-name-here-or-other-email-address,
alternate-email-address-or-username-on-this-box-of-"s....@xxxxxxxxxxx"
if you want a catchall,
in /etc/mail/virtusertable
@example.com catchall-alias-name-username-or-alternate-email-address
if you want to re-write
in /etc/mail/virtusertable
@somewhereelse.com %1@xxxxxxxxxxx
but in this latter case somewhereelse.com must be listed in
/etc/mail/local-host-names as well.
Hope this gives you a starting point
