Hi all,<BR><BR>I tried several times to change the aliases file, but it then seems not to update the "little db" that postfix uses (it continued sending the email to the previous configured account).<BR>So I gave up trying to make it work, and ended changing the script that make the thing (control_rancid).<BR><BR>I searched for :<BR>
<BR><SPAN lang=ES-AR>
# the receipient(s) of diffs<BR>
mailrcpt=${mailrcpt:-"@MAILPLUS@${GROUP}${MAILDOMAIN}"}; export mailrcpt<BR>
adminmailrcpt=${mailrcpt:-"@ADMINMAILPLUS@${GROUP}${MAILDOMAIN}"};<BR>
</SPAN> <BR>
<BR>
Then replaced @MAILPLUS@${GROUP}${MAILDOMAIN} with my desired email account, and I got it working. <BR>
<BR>
Hope this help you.<BR>
Regards.-<BR>
