I can't find any comprehensive documentation for vdeldomain. Maybe it
will do what I want; I don't have a test system to try it on though.

An alias is just that, an alias.  It is not an actual domain.  If you delete
the primary, the alias will not function because there is no primary domain
data for it to alias.

I guessed that, which is why I was asking how to delete the primary domain. I want one of the domain aliases to become the primary domain. Is there any way to do that short of completely recreating the setup for that domain/directory? The primary domain is no longer in use (has expired) and I would like to completely remove all references to it.

My thought was to 'mv' the domain directory to the name of the domain alias, and manually edit the qmail/users/assign file accordingly. But I don't know if there are other locations where the primary domain name is stored that would also need to be updated. (I'm ignoring rcpthosts, etc for now since they seem to be easy changes.)

Thanks,
Charlie
