Firstly it's a bad idea, you should just create accounts you think you might need or are actually mistyped. I too once thought a catchall was a good idea, now several years and many hundreds of thousands of pieces of spam later I don't think so. If your still bent on discussion there is a guide here: Rimu have a howto here: http://rimuhosting.com/support/settingupemail.jsp?mta=sendmail&t=catchall#catchall Good luck, John Narender wrote:
Hi Is there any way of creating a 'catchall' or a default account that all undelivered mail can go to ?
eg if we have 3 user accounts (user1, user2, admin) already set up, but someone sends an email to user3(a)mydomain.com, can sendmail figure out that it doesn't match any existing users and deliver it to admin(a)mydomain.com ?
I am using sendmail-8.13.1-3.RHEL4.5
