I am trying to convert from sendmail to postfix, and I am down to one
last hold-up. I need to convert incoming emails from "me_*@mydomain.com", to "me+*@mydomain.com", where * is an arbitrary word. For example, "me_usenet@home.com" becomes "me+usenet@home.com". I have this working in sendmail with some very ugly .cf rules, but I can't quite figure out how to do this with postfix. Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks, Mark P.S. If anyone is interested, I use this so I can hand out different email addresses to different services. I can then reject particular addresses that end up overwhelmed by spam. I use me_* instead of me+* as many service won't accept email address with a plus sign. There are probably better ways of doing this, but I have been handing these out for years. |

It looks like my mail reader is trying to protect my email addresses. The above (without the domain name) should have read: convert "me_*" to "me+*" where * is an arbitrary word for example: "me_usenet" becomes "me+usenet" |
