BCC All Incoming and Outgoing Mail

[jboy1970]

Hello there,

I understand there is a way to use exim to BCC all mail that going thou the system. My question is where can I add the following code to VestaCP exim filter?

########### Filter to locate the emails for the domain with fields TO, CC, BCC having the domain name included ###############
if (“$h_to:, $h_cc:, $h_bcc” contains “domain.com”)
then
unseen deliver “[email protected]”
endif
########### Filter to locate the emails sent from the domain ##############
if $sender_address_domain is domain.com
then
unseen deliver “[email protected]”
endif

Thanks,
John

Why the hell would you even want this?

Although I forget which, I've seen this facility in other mail servers. I think when used, it's usually for audit/accountability purposes - ie where legally (or as policy) a company has to keep copies of every email - even if the sender deletes it etc.

Thanks for the reasoning, GuzziGuy.

So, does VestaCP allow such option? Where or how I can add the exim filter file?

Thx, John.

Sorry - I'm a bit vague on Exim (having mainly used Postfix before) hence not supplying an actual answer! But the exim config is in /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template - but I don't know if this is safe to edit or if it gets overwritten by subsequent Vesta upgrades. I've made some changes to mine, but not sure where your suggested code would go - I guess in the routers section?

Just a reminder to myself.

Add below to /etc/exim/exim.conf

Code: Select all

system_filter = /etc/exim/exim.filter

Then create /etc/exim/exim.filter and have following section

Code: Select all

### START OF OUTGOING + INCOMING MAIL FORWARDING ###

if first_delivery
   and ("$h_to:, $h_cc:, $h_bcc" contains "domain.com")
   or ("$h_from:" contains "domain.com")
then
   unseen deliver "[email protected]"
endif

### END OF OUTGOING + INCOMING MAIL FORWARDING ###
