Re: Postmaster notifying the wrong account



As far as I can tell 'Postmaster' isnt an actual account. It looks like it
is just an alias used when sending the mail and the mail itself is actually
coming directly from the server.... I'm not sure, I'm pretty lost here, but
I searched through the list of users and I wasn't able to find the
postmaster account to change the delivery properties.
