Managing alias addresses

aliasadd

Syntax:

vmm aliasadd address destination …

vmm aa address destination …

This subcommand is used to create a new alias address with one or more destination addresses.

Within the destination address, the placeholders %n, %d, and %= will be replaced by the local-part, the domain, or the email address with @ replaced by = respectively. In combination with alias domains, this enables domain-specific destinations.

Example:

root@host:~# vmm aliasadd john.doe@example.com d.user@example.com
root@host:~# vmm aa support@example.com d.user@example.com e.user@example.com
root@host:~# vmm aa postmaster@example.com postmaster+%d@example.org

aliasdelete

Syntax:

vmm aliasdelete address [destination …]

vmm ad address [destination …]

This subcommand is used to delete one or multiple destinations from the alias with the given address.

When no destination address was specified the alias with all its destinations will be deleted.

Example:

root@host:~# vmm ad support@example.com d.user@example.com

Changed in version 0.6.1: Accept multiple destinations.

aliasinfo

Syntax:

vmm aliasinfo address

vmm ai address

Information about the alias with the given address can be displayed with this subcommand.

Example:

root@host:~# vmm aliasinfo support@example.com
