Re: Multi-domain and Aliases

[Philippe Le Marchand]

Well, I was thinking about doing it... I just would like to know if someone is already busy with that stuff...   I would add the following features:   1) possibility to "override" the place where to find the maildatabase configuration file for each domain (to allow some domain names to work in a separate DB) 2) a check on the domain when delivering messages, by using usernames like <username>@<mydomain.com> in the repository 3) a king of mailet processing making a prior check on aliases when delivering a message or creating a user, with an Aliases tables or, easier, a way to tag a user as an alias in the Users table   This is a "simple" way to do it, but probably not the "cleanest" one, I haven't fully studied the whole code yet. Anyway, it is quite an important change that I'm ready to do that way for myself, but it could be interesting to study the idea globally, and thus examining how to do it more deeply.   What's your opinion about it?     Philippe ----- Original Message ----- From: tarundsk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2001 5:29 AM Subject: RE: Multi-domain and Aliases at this stage i dont think it is possible but we can do this.....am i right other participants.....   -----Original Message----- From: Philippe Le Marchand [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2001 9:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Multi-domain and Aliases Hi everybody,   This is my first message, as I'm setting up JAMES and look for more information.   Is it possible to run several domain names in the same instance of JAMES? I mean not the list of <servernames> that allows a kind of "domain aliases" for a single user, but really several domain names accepted, with the same username used for two domain names being two different users?   This would make the username look like <username>@<mydomain.com> for instance, or a "domain" column added in the DB, or something... Is it possible today, or will it be in the future?     What about e-mail aliases? Is there another way that using a mailet and adding a line in the xml config file, requesting the server to reboot? This would be another table in the DB, or something... Is it possible today, or will it be in the future?     Thanks for your answer(s),     Philippe Le Marchand Noctis Software [EMAIL PROTECTED]
