Subject:[courier-users] duplicate emailsActions...

Hi,

I have a system running on fedora core 1, courier version 0.44.2, spamassassin 2.64-1.1.

I use the /etc/courier/aliases/system file to map usernames to email addresses and have 2 domains using the mailserver. Some of the users have aliases in both domains, and exist as 2 separate users on the system. One such user is getting duplicate emails sent to one of his boxes. For example, the system usernames are mb18078f and mb21150p (one for each domain).Each of these is aliases to a real email address mb18078f :this@domain1.com mb21150p :this@domain2.com

When email is send to this@domain1.com, an email arrives in teh maildir for both mb18078f and mb21150p. The headers are quite different

His .courier file in each dir is: .Maildir

The header for the sent item is this: Delivered-To: mb18078f@mailserver.localdomain Return-Path: <sen@domain1.com> Received: from mailserver.localdomain (x.static.pacific.net.au [::ffff:x.x.x.x]) by mailserver.localdomain with esmtp; Fri, 22 Apr 2005 13:51:12 +1000 Received: from sender ([192.168.5.94]) by mailserver.localdomain (8.12.10/8.12.10) with SMTP id j3M3OOxG005963 for <this@domain1.com>; Fri, 22 Apr 2005 13:24:24 +1000 Message-ID: <004101c546ed$175b9ac0$5e05a8c0@justiner> From: "Sender" <sen@domain1.com> To: "This User" <this@domain1.com> Subject: bank rec Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2005 13:40:56 +1000 Mime-Version: 1.0

The header for the duplicate, which ends up in mb21150p maildir is this: Delivered-To: mb21150p@mailserver.localdomain Return-Path: <sen@domain1.com> Received: from mailserver.localdomain (b32F1.static.pacific.net.au [::ffff:x.x.x.x]) by mailserver.localdomain with esmtp; Fri, 22 Apr 2005 13:51:12 +1000 Received: from sender ([192.168.5.94]) by mailservr.localdomain (8.12.10/8.12.10) with SMTP id j3M3OOxG005963 for <this@domain1.com.au>; Fri, 22 Apr 2005 13:24:24 +1000 Message-ID: <004101c546ed$175b9ac0$5e05a8c0@sender> From: "Sender" <sen@domain1.com> To: "This User" <this@domain1.com>

without some instruction to carry this duplicate delivery out, I just don't understand why emails are delivered to both mailboxes. As far as I know, it isnt' happening for any of the other users that have 2 aliases, just this one user.

Thanks, gb
