Re: [cobalt-users] os upgrade 4

["gr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <gr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

just in case anyone else runs into this problem of email aliases after os 4 
upgrade here's our fix which is working up to now but I'm sure blows your 
warranty out of the window (like it was still there on ours haha)

1) make a back-up of virtusertable

        cp virtusertable virtusertable.bak

2) edit virtusertable with your favorite text editor

3) pick one domain to test it on and comment out all lines for that domain 
that have been changed

        #admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx   admin

3) save your changes

4) run

        makemap hash /etc/virtusertable < /etc/virtusertable

5) go to the gui for the site you chose click the email parameters for the 
user with the catch-all - enter the new aliases admin @www.domain.com etc 
etc  and save them

that should do it!!

as always please note the above could seriously damage your system etc etc
