Mail Receiving issue in linux Environment

we got one critical issue in job scheduling.we are migrating one application from solaris environment (Current PROD) to SUSE linux 9 environment (New or ported PROD).The application actually schedules the job by filtering the subject of the incoming mail (using PROCMAIL).Here incoming mail is coming from personal mail id (eg user@companydomain.com).
My question is,
How it has to be implemented to receive the mails from personal mail id(eg user@companydomain.com) to the server application mail id (eg applicationID@Hostname) ?
is there any configuration file to make this work? and if it is so,please provide the file name and changes needs to be done.

Additional Information:-
We are currently working in SUSE linux 9 environment.I could able to send mail to personal mail id (user@companydomain.com) from server application mail id (applicationID@Hostname) environment .But the reverse is not happening,if we try to send,we get the failure notice.
In the current solaris environment, this mail sending from personal mail ID to application mail ID is working fine.But not working in the ported environment.

Advance Thanks Smilie

With Regards,

NAME
sulogin - Single-user login SYNOPSIS
sulogin [options] [tty] DESCRIPTION
sulogin is invoked by init when the system goes into single user mode. The user is prompted: Give root password for system maintenance (or type Control-D for normal startup): sulogin will be connected to the current terminal, or to the optional tty device that can be specified on the command line (typically /dev/console). After the user exits the single-user shell or presses control-D at the prompt, the system will continue to boot. OPTIONS
-e, --force If the default method of obtaining the root password via getpwnam(3) from the system fails, manually examine /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to get the password. If they are damaged or nonexistent, sulogin will start a root shell without asking for a password. Only use the -e option if you are sure the console is physically protected against unauthorized access. -p, --login-shell Specifying this option causes sulogin to start the shell process as a login shell. -t, --timeout seconds Specify the maximum amount of time to wait for user input. By default, sulogin will wait forever. -h, --help Print a help message. -V, --version Output version. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
sulogin looks for the environment variable SUSHELL or sushell to determine what shell to start. If the environment variable is not set, it will try to execute root's shell from /etc/passwd. If that fails it will fall back to /bin/sh. AUTHOR
sulogin was written by Miquel van Smoorenburg for sysvinit and later ported to util-linux by Dave Reisner and Karel Zak. AVAILABILITY
The sulogin command is part of the util-linux package and is available from Linux Kernel Archive <ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils /util-linux/>. util-linux Jul 2012 SULOGIN(8)
