This allows you to have one user with multiple email addresses, an alias expansion to multiple users, or a multi-user alias with multiple addresses. -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page

"mail" AKA "rfc822Mailbox" for the address that people will send mail to.
