OSX 10.8.5 Server
mail_version = 2.9.2

Hi folks.

For some reason, one of my accounts is forwarding their inbound email to an admin user. I've replaced that questionable user and it is still happening. Ya I'm not a fan of the GUI in OSX as I'd rather edit text files, but that's the situation I have here.

I can't find anything with regards to any forwarding, and I'm at a loss as to where to look. This user only.

Any advice appreciated. Everything looks great, other than it's behaving this way.

Cheers
Rob Brown

I know nothing, but I have been led to believe that OSX is really unix
under the hood, so I would look for a .forward file in the user's login
directory. Procmail can forward mail too, but I cannot advise you about
how to check to see it that is who is shooting you in the foot.

Maybe a /etc/alias file ?
