Forward a specific incoming mail to a user
Hi There
Not sure if this is the correct place for this.
I'm running Sendmail on a Debian box and want to do the following.
e-mail comes in from userk@domain.co.za and is destined for usera@mydomain.co.za, but i want all mail from userk@domain.co.za to go to userb@mydomain.co.za. Sendmail must do the redirection of the mail.
How would i get this to work ?

sendmailconfig
SENDMAILCONFIG(8) System Manager's Manual SENDMAILCONFIG(8) NAME
sendmailconfig - configure sendmail for Debian systems SYNOPSIS
sendmailconfig [--no-reload] DESCRIPTION
sendmailconfig is used to simplify the configuration of sendmail(8) for use on Debian systems. In the simplest case, you may run this program to (re)configure sendmail for your Debian system at any time. It will modify the file /etc/mail/sendmail.mc in order to create a working sendmail configuration which will be written to the file /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. For advanced configurations, you can modify the sendmail.mc file before generating sendmail.cf. Future invokations of sendmailconfig will preserve these changes provided they are made at the end of the file. Normally sendmailconfig will ask if you want to reload sendmail after making changes to its configuration. The --no-reload option will avoid this question. FILES
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc sendmail m4 input to generate sendmail.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf actual sendmail configuration file /etc/mail/sendmail.cw names for which we will accept mail in the standard configuration /etc/mail/sendmail.ct names of trusted users in the standard configuration SEE ALSO
