The Forward Mailet
Hello,
I am interested in using the "All" matcher and the "Forward" mailet in the root processor to forward all e-mail that hits James.
I have read all the documentation for the Forward mailet and have placed it in the root processor. Is there a trick that I need to do to make it work correctly? I have the "transport" processor listed after the Forward mailet. That is to say, there are two pairs of matchers/mailets. The Forward mailet comes before the matcher/mailet that sends remaining messages to the transport processor.
For example:
<processor="root">
<mailet match="All" class="Forward">
<forwardto>newEmailAddress</forwardto>
</mailet>
<mailet match="All" class="ToProcessor">
<processor> transport </processor>
</mailet>
</processor>
The transporter processor contains the default mailets that comes with James.
Thanks,
Hut

for example don't forward everything but only the addresses you actually
need using the HostIs matcher.
Regarding the doc, unfortunately, I don't remember where it was described,
maybe in the source code. When I started using James I created an endless
loop each an every time I changed the configuration.

Hontvari,
Thanks for your help. I am unfamilar with the Forward mailet, sod I did not
know that it reentered the root processor.
What would a better configuration to forward messages and (better yet) do
you have any suggestions as to where I could find more information on the
Forward mailet?
Thanks
Hut

you are near, but currently this is an infinite loop. Don't forget that the
forwarded message reenters the root processor.

Hello,
I am interested in using the "All" matcher and the "Forward" mailet in the
root processor to forward all e-mail that hits James.
I have read all the documentation for the Forward mailet and have placed it
in the root processor. Is there a trick that I need to do to make it work
correctly? I have the "transport" processor listed after the Forward
mailet. That is to say, there are two pairs of matchers/mailets. The
Forward mailet comes before the matcher/mailet that sends remaining messages
to the transport processor.
For example:
<processor="root">
<mailet match="All" class="Forward">
<forwardto>newEmailAddress</forwardto>
</mailet>
<mailet match="All" class="ToProcessor">
<processor> transport </processor>
</mailet>
</processor>
The transporter processor contains the default mailets that comes with

Noel,
I am prototyping an possible idea I have to incorporate into my company's
application. Right now, I am simply looking at the possibility of
forwarding incoming mail to mail servers on several developers desktops. It
is a proof of concept thought.
With that said, I am curious as to where I need to place the Forward mailet
to operate effectively. The All matcher is simply a way of starting off
small then add the various functions that I need.
I fully expect developing a custom mailet that would incorporate parts of
the Forward mailet functionality.
Thanks,
Hut
