i have a college project to make a email server or something which will forward a mail coming to abc@xyz.com to a gmail/hotmail account
where can i learn about this or what can i do
I need to make a simple email server to forward emails?
Get a good idea of the protocols used in email. You should know how POP3 and SMTP work. Your email forwarder will end up being a daemon. It just listens for incoming e-mail on POP3, picks it up, and then sends the mail to abc@xyz.com through SMTP.
Reply:You can use the pipe feature in linux to forward to a .pl file which would be set to forward it to another email address.
