*] If you are using EXIM, pico /etc/valiases/domain
you will need to add the following line:

[email protected]: |/path/to/perldesk/email.cgi

As with sendmail, repeat that line for each
address you want perldesk to manage.


I was wondering what file to edit somthen like that in.

What this does is if you send to that email then it goes through the email.cgi which puts it in our helpdesk.

Thanks

pico is an editor like vi, so it looks like the file they want you to edit is /etc/valiases/domain
 
Heh

I know.. but that isnt a such file.. I was wondering if someone knew what the real file direct admin uses for the same thing

Oh, ok, I understand what you are asking now. The file(s) depends on which domain you are installing perldesk on. If it is the main domain on your server, then you would add the line to /etc/aliases or if it is a virtual domain then it would be /etc/virtual/${domainname}/aliases where ${domainname} is the virtual domain name.
 
Hello,

Yes, /etc/virtual/domain.com/aliases

or just create a forwarder as:

"|/path/to/perldesk/email.cgi"

with the quotes.
