copy of outgoing email message

[Usman]

we are looking for a mail server product or a sendmail hook that allows to send a copy of all emails to an administrative account in addition to sending it to the recipients mentioned in the message. this should cover all the emails being sent by the email server both locally and using SMTP. it is better to have a configurable administrative account.

thanks in advance for any options

I don't know about the tachnical solution to that. But also considder that there may be a leag aspect of it. You may not be premtted to copy/store the users e-mails without a written permission.

Yes we already know this thing and it will be only employed after all the users have been completed informed and is subject to their agreement.

Hi,

We have to copy messages into a management server to comply with financial regulations. I do this be having the sendmail daemon queue messages rather than deliver them by setting the DeliveryMode=queueonly option in the cf file.

I then have a multi-threaded perl script running that scans the queue, copies the messages to another directory, deliver those to the management server, then delivers the original message. The script does a whole lot more than this, but it's fairly straightforward if all you need to do is copy messages.

Rgds, Robin

thanks SivaKumar for informing about the software. although i will try it out, it seems more like copying messages rather than transparently forwarding to an account.
