First of all, thank you very much for your work, and sorry for the late reply. I like the patch and the approach. I can see that aliases support would be useful for some applications, and it is a good idea to not try and implement full MTA-compatible alias support with multiple expansions, include files, command piping and so on, but only a subset that makes sense to use with msmtp and avoids much of the complexity. About the concerns raised about added complexity vs. keeping msmtp minimal: I think we can afford to add this patch. There were only very few small feature additions since 1.4.0 was released 6.5 years ago, so I don't think msmtp is suffering from bloat. Furthermore, the cleanup in version 1.4.24 reduced the code size significantly, so that even with the aliases patch the 1.4.24 binary is smaller than the 1.4.23 binary on my system. That said, I personally do not need aliases functionality, and I would like to get some feedback from people who would use this. Alejandro, Ovidiu: you asked about aliases support in msmtp before; does this patch fulfill your needs? Can you test it?
