Perhaps I should remove the Courier apps that came with the machine and install Courier IMAP myself. That would probably fix the problem.

Maybe, but it's hard to say. So far you've said very little about what

the problem is. Exactly what do you expect to happen, and what does happen instead?

I wanted mail sent to linux-kde at shadypond.com to go to linux at

shadypond.com, but I could not get this to work on one of my systems. I have fixed the problem, sort of, using aliases. It's not the way I wanted

to do it, but it works and it's good enough. On my other system, I don't need aliases to get it to work.

So you have a Postfix server simply relaying the messages (after performing virus/spam filtering) then it hits Courier-MTA? OK, you can either configure the mailshares as an NFS share, mount them on the postfix server and have postfix do final delivery directly to the mailshares (I'd recommend this, why complicate things with multiple MTAs when you don't need to?) or you can configure Courier to accept linux-kde style addresses. See the docs here:

http://www.courier-mta.org/dot-courier.html

In the future, you might try using the -v (Verbose) option when composing help requests to mailing lists :) Moderators rarely get upset for users supplying to much information, unless of course their including the imap logfile for connecting to their folder with 10,000 emails....
