Alias Agent: Local Aliases

Local aliases are applied only to messages passing through the local Alias Agent's monitored queue. For local aliases, the Alias Agent uses its own alias table.

Alias Table
To build a local alias table, type one alias per line followed by a hard return. Use the following syntax:

alias = username

For example, if a user's user name were SJones and he wanted to be known also by SteveJ, you would enter:

SteveJ = SJones

Users could then address email to SteveJ and it would be delivered to SJones' mailbox.

You could also set up a local alias such as feedback@company.com that would automatically go to whomever you specify in the local alias. The destination can be either a local or remote email address.

When you are finished entering aliases, click Apply to create the local alias table.
