Hi Ed, Yes. It's my understanding that the ldap aliasing in courier requires that the attribute values for recipents must contain an email address (much like the mail attribute). What I'm looking for is the ability to use a dn type attribute. Both the groupofnames and groupofuniquenames are such classes. They contain member and uniquemember attributes. These attributes are distinguised name for entries. Each entry is a member of the group. I'd like to be able to send mail to an address which is a mail attribute on a class derived from one of these groups and have the message go to all memebers who have a mail attribute. I'm of the understaindg that Courier can't do what I'm looking for as is. Am I mistaken? I'd love it if I were. Thanks!
