Re: [cobalt-users] aliases vs. virtusertable

[josh <josh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

(IIRC..YMMV..etc)if virtusertable says

support@xxxxxxxxxxx  myprogramhere
support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx error:nouser No such user here

then mail will e delivered to support for xyx.xyx.com all other maill
addressed to support will be returned witht he error
message. virtusertable maps an address with the domain to a user on
your machine.

Then in aliases
myprogramhere "|/usr/adm/sm.bin/symlinktorealprogram -options"

This because of smrsh, try 'man smrsh'

Remember to rebuild aliases and virtusertable dbs.

Toughest question is why no generics table to let us peg each user as
coming from one and only one domains (per user). But you didn't ask
that one.
