Kenny,
Aliases are internal aliases for James. Set a forwarding address, instead.
If you have a lot of pure aliases, you might want to look at JDBCAlias or
the JDBCVirtualUserTable (only available in the CVS at the moment).

Subject: Newbie Setup Question
Hello,
I've just started getting into James, and I'm really excited, it looks like
a great product! I've got the server started, but I'm having some trouble
configuring it past that. It may be a problem with understanding
terminiology, but I'm not sure.
Forgive the verbosity, but I want to make sure the words I'm using as the
same words that James understands:
I want to setup a POP account named 'kmail' and I want to setup an alias
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' that points at 'kmail', so that email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] will then be available when I login as 'kmail'
and download my email.
This is what happens when I telnet in:
--------------- snip ------------------
Welcome root. HELP for a list of commands
adduser kmail xxxxxxxx
User kmail added
setalias kmail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Alias unknown to server - create that user first.
--------------- snip ------------------
Am I just misunderstanding? Is there a faq (I've read the one on the
website) that goes over basic setup and usage beyond the initial
installation of james? Any help is appreciated, thanks.
