Oh, now I get it. Sorry I was being dense about your question. The answer is that DBMail 1.x *does not check the users table at all* when looking for delivery addresses. dbmail_users: 15 [EMAIL PROTECTED] dbmail_aliases: ... [EMAIL PROTECTED] 15 ... [EMAIL PROTECTED] 15 In DBMail 1.x, every address that you want to receive messages for must be listed in dbmail_aliases. If the deliver-to field matches the useridnr of a user, then the delivery will happen inside of DBMail. If the deliver-to is not a useridnr, then DBMail will either forward to the address or will pipe to the program (if it begins with ! or |). Aaron
