How do I setup a single address to deliver to multiple people.

Thanks all for the answer, the simplest FORWARD file does the trick perfectly.

Thanks again.

Hi all,

I have a fairly simple one, how so I setup an email address to deliver to multiple people.
support@acme.com receives mail and sends it to joe@acme.com and fred@acme.com so I guess how do I make support@acme.com a group email address?

There are at least 3 ways to do this. The simplest solution is probably to create a mailbox called support, and use file based forwarding to deliver copies to joe and fred. Another way is to create an alias for support@acme.com and point it to a general rule set that delivers copies of the mail to joe and fred. The third possibility would be to have a mailing list with joe and fred as members.

A fourth way would be to use header rules in Global filtering.  You could use two rules like this:

If To: contains support@acme.com then forward to joe@acme.com

If To: contains support@acme.com then forward to fred@acme.com 

 

Or, a more efficient way would be to branch to a label like this:

 If To: contains support@acme.com then Goto label Support_Fwd

.

.

.

Always exit

Label Support_Fwd

Always forward to joe@acme.com

Always forward to fred@acme.com

Always Exit
