Create a file in your home directory named help which
says:
We offer you help.
Mail to help@yourdomain.com will return the message "We offer
you help".
Infobot filenames should not have upper case letters in them.
Incoming mail addresses are normalized to lower case before the
infobot directory(ies) is searched.
N.B. Infobot content must be terminated with a newline
character; that is, you should press 'Enter' before you write
your infobot file to disk.
To cause the infobot to send a response, and also send a copy of the
original message to you, you would use the following technique:
Create the infobot, mybot.txt, as described above.
In your .redirect file, make an entry of the form:
info mybot@mydomain.com,myid
Mail sent to info@mydomain.com will then cause a copy of mybot.txt
to be returned to sender, and a copy of the original message to
be sent to myid@mydomain.com.
Notes
- You can redirect mail and send back an infobot for a given
alias. Just set them both up normally (as if you were just doing
one or the other).
