Server (with Postfix) is forwarding my email using a .forward file, is it still saved on the server?

0

I'm using Postfix on my server but not really using that for much because I have a .forward file setup for all accounts which forwards the email to someplace else, and never sending through the server.

So I just want to know if Postfix or anything would still be saving copies of the received emails anywhere. I looked in some of the obvious places but couldn't find anything.

can you post the output of postconf -n, that will help to find if postfix is also sending/storing it somewhere else. – clement – 2014-07-30T13:39:38.447
