Then you need to fix the alias so it resolves to a valid account.

** Ok !
** But the problem is that the mail-address I've forwarded the mail

** To : <alias> and not <another account> which the mail-server then rejects
** (the account is not valid).
**
** PS ! <another account> is not on my system !

**
** That's the way it is supposed to be.
**
** The "To:" that is shown in mail clients comes from the header of the
** message. The message header is created by the E-mail client
** (the sender of
** the message), except for a few headers that get added along the way.
**
** Often E-mails get sent to multiple people. Using the "To:" field, all of
** them get the exact same message, with the same initial headers.
**
** In IMail, you're lucky, because you *can* see <another account> (although
** nobody else receiving the message will). It's hidden in the
** headers in the
** "X-RCPT-TO: " field.
**
** Using the "To:" field actually is going to work very well for
** me, as I have
** a domain name with a bunch of different E-mail addresses that all come to
** me. Since I configured my E-mail client to get the mail, I already know
** what the <another account> is. And, through the "To:" field, I
** can see the
** actual E-mail address that it was sent to.
