Is it possible to create mailinglists with postfix mysql dbmail ?
Sort of...
Or aliases that forward to external email addresses ?
It is. Check the dbmail-adduser manpage and look at the x and f options.
This does work kind of, but dbmail-adduser is a rather simplistic
interface for this functionality.
Try querying the aliases table directly.
The deliver_to field normally contains users.user_idnr, but
aliases.alias, external addresses, or a comma-separated list of
addresses are also valid it seems. If I read pipe.c correctly even
domain-forwards are possible here... tested it, it works. So you can do
something like:
insert into aliases (alias,deliver_to) values
('[EMAIL PROTECTED]','[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]');
or
insert into aliases (alias,deliver_to) values
('@foobar.nl','[EMAIL PROTECTED]');
P.S. comma-separated lists are not treated all too intelligently it
seems. The whole list is compared as-is to the alias column, not on a
per-adres bases. So if such a list contains an address that would
normally be treated as a locally delivered one, the message is still fed
back to postfix to be send to all addresses in the list including the
local address.
Still cool stuff though, I think.
