[KLUG Members] Question about sendmail catchall virtusertable.

[Adam Bultman]

Okay, questions on sendmail.  I've heard ( and possibly read on this list
before) about sendmail's virtual users.  At work, and at home, I have
virtual users set up.  Allegedly, you can put, for a given host, this:

@mydomain.com <user>

And all emails to nonexistent users or whatever will go to that user.  I
have that set up.  I send a mail to asdlgjasdg@mydomain.com, and it goes
through -- sendmail accepts it, but then, it just kind of disappears.  It
doesn't go to root (where I tell it), and it doesn't come back to me, it
just goes away.

Is this default behavior?  I thought it was suppsed to be delivered to the
user?  Or is this jsut some kind of bit-bucket alias?
