forevereternity Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Probably a stupid question here. I was trying to configure my mailhosts. I'm loving this site by the way. Here's my problem: LiveJournal's mail server, the source of most of my spam, directs mail sent to myusername[at]livejournal.com* to my Gmail address - simply a forwarding service. So, I configured the last link in the chain, the gmail account, first as instructed. However, I have TWO [at]livejournal.com addresses to list - because I renamed my journal, and receive spam directed to both. i.e. spam that is sent to oldusername[at]livejournal.com still arrives -- it forwards to newusername[at]livejournal.com -- which sends to my GMail account. And of course, any spam mail sent to newusername[at]livejournal.com also comes in. I configured newusername with no problems, but when trying to add oldusername, even with adding a different shortcut name (LJ instead of LiveJournal) it basically.. overwrote my old address -- doesn't show both. How do I get the Mailhost system to recognize the two Livejournal addresses? * obviously not my real user name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 As stated in oh so many previous posts, the Pinned entries here, it is not "each address" .. it is each e-mail server that needs to be "defined" ... that you say you have this accomplished, the only thing that remains is the diagnosis of a spam parse or two to verify that things are OK.
