Domain Catchall in Zimbra

Sep-7th-2010

Hi,

If you want to set up an account “user@linuxsurgeon.org” to catch all any mail not delivered to existing users in the domain “linuxsurgeon.org”, you can configure the account as a domain catchall.

If the users “admin@linuxsurgeon.org”, “webmaster@linuxsurgeon.org”, and “nobody@linuxsurgeon.org” don’t exist, and mail arrives for them, it will be delivered to the catchall account “user@linuxsurgeon.org”. This will increase the amount of spam delivered, and can lead to being blacklisted.

[root@map007]# su – zimbra
[zimbra@map007]$  zmprov modifyAccount user@linuxsurgeon.org zimbraMailCatchAllAddress @linuxsurgeon.org

To remove the catchall from an email account, unset the catchall address:

[root@map007]# su – zimbra

[zimbra@map007]$ zmprov modifyAccount user@linuxsurgeon.org zimbraMailCatchallAddress “”

Enjoy Linux !!!
