How do I create email aliases, and how do I redirect them?
Assume your domain
is "example.com".
You need to edit the
.redirect file in your home directory.
Here is a sample .redirect
file for example.com:
default example@example.com
webmaster example@example.com
sales joe@aol.com, mike@whatever.com
info robert@example.com
That will automatically
redirect all webmaster@example.com emails to
example@example.com, sales@example.com
to joe@aol.com AND
mike@whatever.com, and
info@example.com to robert@example.com.
All others will go to example@example.com.
Note that webmaster line isn't necessary, but it's better to specifically redirect
it to example@example.com.
It's important to note
that the second column must be REAL accounts. You cannot redirect
emails to an alias. Please
note that it takes a few minutes for the .redirect file to go
into effect after
you've updated it.
Ask us to create additional
real email(POP) accounts. |
