Linux - Jnos Setup and Configuration HOW-TO

Mail rewrite file

By John Martin KF8KK

 

The mail rewrite file is a wonderful yet complex feature of Jnos.

The rewrite file allows you to re-write the 'to' addresses in email so that the users of the system do not have to know the behind the scenes routing of their messages-- or to allow the system to correct common misspellings or other mistakes.

At this time I cannot devote adequate time to describe the functions of this file.  Please see the regular Jnos documentation for more information.
