Behold ye unbelievers:
http://wiki.mailscanner.info/doku.php?id=documentation:configuration:mta:postfix:how_to:split_mails_per_recipient

Please do read through this, try it out, comment and flame away:-)

I finally had a few moments of time, and was anyway in the process of
setting up a new testbed ... A lot of you have simply not believed me
when I've said that this can easily be done with Postfix (well,
"easily" might be saying to much:-), so I thought I'd spend the extra
minutes on setting it up and testing it... and documenting it, as
well.

So Pete (Russell), no need to look further than the above link:-)

BTW, Jules... This means I finally have a testbed worth its salt...
Add me to your beta-testers.

Cheers

Never a disbeliever, just like you no time to do it :-)

Nice work Glenn. Good to see (IMHO) the Postfix docs still surpassing
those of anyother MTA in the wiki ;-)

Thanks guys!
I was a bit wondering about the blurb in theMAQ... AFAICR, exim is
said to be able to do this, but the MAQ only detail Sendmail... and
(now) Postfix... I guess Martin (or someone) has a bit of typing to
do:-):-)

Awesome!
A bit of an MTA war is a good thing for documentation it seems!

I have been politically correct and have moved the sendmail details
under the MTA tree. I have also changed to wording so that it is
"documented" rather than "supported"

Why do you think I stuck the sendmail stuff on the front page ;-)

Yeah well .... It's as with the replying to oneself thing (for postfix
admins)... Sort of mandatory:-):-)
BTW, we've been a bit lax in teh "reply to oneself department on this
thread, haven't we.... :-D

It's nice to see someone else who suffers 'fat-finger syndrome'. I hate to
think how many applications, servers, routers (infact anything!) that has
not worked properly first time due to a stupid typo in a config file :-)

One day some one will manage a thought connection and remove these damn
keyboards. On the other hand, with what goes through my mind... ;-)
