Hi Maria,
I think if you're using sendmail as mta in the linux box you can use virtusertable in order to forward the incoming mail from one user to another one, even an external mail. Hope this helps,

Please....I am lost completly!! Could anyone help me to solve the question of how can I configure the mail in my linux machine.... The scenarious is that this linux machine with red had enterprise linux 4 receives mail from another machine via sendmail. This mail is saved into /var/spool/mail/ directori, the user is webmaster.

Hello people!!
First, thanks very much to Ejay Hire and to John Peacock for your quickly answer!!
Now, I've dovecot installed, I downloaded the source and I compiled them. It's running ok now.
But.....as I am new in all these issues I have some problems with the configuration.
I have a user called "webmaster" that have a mail into /var/spool/mail, I want to redirect these mails to the "Evolution Mail" program from my Linux Desktop. I have doubts in two ways:
1.- Is the dovecot.conf file correct? 2.- Are the "Evolution Mail" setting correct?
Evolution Account Settings: Name: webmaster@bar.ses.alcatel.es Full Name: webmaster Email Address: webmaster@bar.ses.alcatel.es Server Type: POP Host: 159.23.98.66 Username: webmaster Server Type: SMTP Server Configuration: 159.23.98.66
