Hi all

I'm not well versed with Linux administration, and I have a domain that I need to create a second mailbox for.

i.e I already have me@fubar.com for the domain fubar.com, and now I want to make submit@fubar.com.

I would prefer not to have to create a whole new user if posible because down the road I may end up having to make many many mailboxes for this domain (hopefully it's going to be a big site), but if I have to I will.

I am using Webmin control panel on a Redhat OS.

Thanks!

depends on what mail server is installed.

Think its just Sendmail an Fetchmail.

Sendmail version 8.13.1, config V10/Berkeley

Create an alias.
I have not used red-hat since 1999, so I'll give you the shell version:

//Log as root, and go to /etc/mail
$root> cd /etc/mail [enter]
//edit the "alias" file
$root> nano alias [enter]
//NOTE TO APPLEBAG: those are the basic aliases on a Gentoo system, they might be different of yours...
# Basic system aliases -- these MUST be present.
MAILER-DAEMON:      postmaster
postmaster:         root

# General redirections for pseudo accounts.
adm:                root
bin:                root
daemon:             root
exim:               root
lp:                 root
mail:               root
named:              root
nobody:             root
postfix:            root

# Well-known aliases -- these should be filled in!
# root:
# operator:

# Standard RFC2142 aliases
abuse:              postmaster
ftp:                root
hostmaster:         root
news:               usenet
noc:                root
security:           root
usenet:             root
uucp:               root
webmaster:          root
www:                webmaster

# trap decode to catch security attacks
# decode:           /dev/null

//<!!! ADD THE ALIAS HERE !!>
submit: me
//Then exit with save (ctrl+x and answer questions. When it asks for the file name, hit enter)

//Back to the shell, declare the system that the alias list has changed 
$root> newaliases [enter]

And this should be enough.

Every mails sent to submit@foobar.org will be stored in the me@foobar.org mailbox
