Hi,
I'm fairly new to sendmail and server configuration on Linux.
We are an ESP and we're trying to implement a bounce back return path/replies architecture.
Basically we need to achieve the following with send mail:
1- Setup sendmail so it will only receive messages and *NEVER* send!
2- Be able to receive messages from multiple domains that have their MX record pointing to our sendmail box. If sendmail can remain untouchable e.g without having to setup a domain each time we create it!.
3- Analyse the TO header and create folders/accounts matching a specific criteria, e.g. if the TO is bounce_123_456@inbound.domain.com create the account/folder bounce_123 and dump the message there.
4- Ideally the 3rd point would be a bounce account with multiple folders inside e.g. bounce\123, bounce\321, possibly only achievable with IMAP but open to suggestions!
5- Handle all the above with high amounts of traffic. I'm talking at about 1000s a minute...
I appreciate your help,
Kind Regards,
Pedro
