Mail forward problem

[badben]

I have set-up a mail forward on the catchall address fro a domain.

The problem is that the email doesn't get forwarded.

If I set it to keep copy the copy is kept in inbox but not forwarded and I can't see why.

There are no entries in the error or warning logs for the message bnut the output of info is:

Any ideas.

P.s on Mandrake 10.2 using perfect setup

Please have a look at the procmail recipes in the home directory of the user, is the procmail recipe for forwarding is included in the .procmail.rc file and does the forward recipe contain the correct email address?

[badben]

where is this file?

I have looked in /home/www/web19/user/XXX.co.uk/ and there is only index.html

Thanks in advance

The files are hidden, you mus use the command ls -la in the home directory of the user to see the files.

I have just had a look and this file and it does not exist. this would appear to be the problem I think.

Any suggestions?

What's the output of

grep <username> /etc/passwd

?
