If mail is sent to xyz@domain1.com and you want it to : go to abc@domain2.com just add that to your aliases file. Actually, sendmail 8.7.1 (just out) has a great way to do this. The problem with aliases is you can't have domain names on it. It only works for local users (accounts on the machine). The sendmail 8.7.1 approach is pretty easy to set up and works very well. I'm sure there's no binaries for 8.7.1 available for BSDI, so get the code and compile it up. Pete.
