An alternative way to set the forwarders, that will also allow you to use your mailbox and the webinterface, is to use a .forward file. On each line of this file, you can specify to wich addresses you want to forward the email. If one of the addresses is the same as your @ulyssis address, then the mail will also be placed in your ULYSSIS mailbox. In the following example, your @ulyssis email address is <code>user@ulyssis.org</code>.

Change the forwarders for other domains

  1. Go to ucc.ulyssis.org and log in with your username and password.
  2. On the right side, click on Mail.
  3. Under Virtual Domains, click on the domain you want to change.

Use your mailbox and forwarders at the same time

An alternative way to set the forwarders, that will also allow you to use your mailbox and the webinterface, is to use a .forward file. On each line of this file, you can specify to wich addresses you want to forward the email. If one of the addresses is the same as your @ulyssis address, then the mail will also be placed in your ULYSSIS mailbox. In the following example, your @ulyssis email address is user@ulyssis.org.

Example .forward file:

user@ulyssis.org
example@gmail.com
example2@skynet.be

This will place the email in your ULYSSIS mailbox so that you can access it from the webinterface or your local mailclient. It will also forward the mail to example@gmail.com and example2@skynet.be.

To use this, place a .forward file with the prefered email addresses in your homedir, see Accessing your files, and set your forwarder to 'Inbox' in https://ucc.ulyssis.org/mail
