Multiple Users
in [Postfix]
|
From: "Jonathan Tripathy" on 30 Jun 2010 09:15 Hi there, Does postfix support multiple users using aliases? Example: sales(a)domain.com <mailto:sales(a)domain.com> would send the mail to user1(a)domain.com, user2(a)domain.com, user3(a)domain.com support(a)domain.com would send the mail to user2(a)domain.com and user3(a)domain.com My aliases table and user database is stored in a MYSQL database. May this task is more suitable for a mailing list program Thanks

This is unlike the aliases(5) table which is used only for local(8) delivery. Virtual aliasing is recursive, and is implemented by the Postfix cleanup(8) daemon before mail is queued. The main applications of virtual aliasing are: o To redirect mail for one address to one or more addresses. ... You should be able to place your virtual alias maps in MySQL. If your lists grow larger or you intend to modify them frequently, a mailing list manager is probably a better long-term solution.
