So you would suggest that i do 'forwards' was it true that aliases were once more efficient than forwards - but now they are ...the same?
I had read that aliases should be used for sending mail to to an EXISTING mail accounts ON YOUR DOMAIN and forwards Allows you to forward mail sent to an existing or nonexistent mail account on your domain to any email account anywhere on the web. For example. Mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] can be forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Forwards can also be used like aliases to deliver mail to other local accounts in the same domain. It is however recommended that aliases be used for this as they are more efficient. and If i did edit the aliases file ( and run newaliases ) will I break something or will it have no effect?
