Sorry to ask an undoubtedly basic question but I have been searching for the solution for a while now and found nothing.
I use Mercury/32 V4 running on a Win98SE machine to retrive mail for 10 users. It works absolutely fine.
...BUT, when Mercury retrieves mail it often puts a message in the Distributing POP3 client window about non-local messages, e.g.:
24 messages received
22 messages successfully delivered to xxxx@blabla-net.com
2 non-local messages ignored
It's the last line that gives me the problem. I cannot find out what these 'non-local' messages are. They might be genuine mails that are slightly incorrectly addressed, e.g. to petr instead of peter.
My questions are:
1. How can I tell what these non-local messages actually are
2. What does Mercury do with the non-local messages? It obviously retrieves them from the ISP but I can't find them locally.
3. How can I set up a 'catch all' mailbox, i.e. send all mail for unknown users to xyz mailbox?
I'm pulling my hair out - please help.
