people did not understand the question. What I want is the mail stream
to machine A to be also sent or bounced to machine B. The "also" is
the operational word. Both machines should get the same mail stream.
The only way I can think of to do this (different :-)) thing is to have a proxy program that sends the mail to both machines. You have a slight problem in implementing this as you have to somehow combine two responses for each request. For example, you send a RCPT TO: to each of A and B. What do you do when A says "250" and B says "450 Out of Disk Space" (or whatever)?
There is an easy way to do it for individual users: you just set an alias for a user "u" as "u: u@A, u@B" -- sendmail deals with the apparent looping OK. I can't help thinking that there ought to be a way of doing this with sendmail re-writing rules, but I can't think of a way of splitting a message off to two different mailers and my bat book is at home.
Someone is bound to come along and say there's an easier way to do this using PostFix or something :-)
