thanks for that info, !! tried it and it worked, I had originally been adding users wth 'dbmail-adduser a [EMAIL PROTECTED] pass 0 0' without an alias, as i thought if the username was the full address no alias was required, so thanks for that help'
now another problem has reared its head... before i went about trying the last problem out, i deleted all the users out of the dbmail table with 'dbmail-adduser d <username>' and found that it leaves the alias's in the alias table? Is this not supposed to remove these as well ? as i can see it becoming cluttered over time. Any thoughts on that ? thanks for the help..
