Chapter 15 Sending and Receiving Mail4. To replace just one symbol or character in an alias, use the ? symbol. (for example, ?imestands for time, dime, etc.).5. Messages will be delivered to both addresses at once:jwayne → infojwayne → jwayneIt is recommended to specify this alias directly in the user account settings (see chapter13), because it is more comprehensive.Each account or group can be associated with any number of aliases. It is also possible to binda new alias to an alias already existing. If a message is sent to a username, it is marked bya flag so that the aliases not get looped. If such message arrives to the username marked bythe flag, it will be stored in the mailbox that belongs to the last unmarked alias:jwayne → waynewayne → john.waynejohn.wayne → wayneNote: Aliases can be used also for assigning another email address to a user or a group, orforwarding messages for a user or a group to other addresses. However, it is recommendedto specify these settings directly during the process of user definition (see chapter 13.2), orgroup definition (see chapter 14.1).Defining AliasesDefine aliases in the Domain Settings → Aliases section.First you need to choose a domain for which the aliases will be defined.
