Email Aliases

I am new to Scalix, however I am experienced with sendmail configurations. I am trying to build alias tables in Scalix like I would for use in sendmail. I am really looking to duplicate the mailertable functionality, sometimes also know as the virtuser table. Basically I need to perform the following.

Assume my mail box is user1@domain.com

I want to be able to send the following to that address:

alias1@domain.com -> user1@domain.com
alias2@domain.com -> user1@domain.com

Thanks...

You can add internet addresses to a user using the omaddent command, e.g.

You can either use the Admin Console to add an additional address or, if you want to use the command line:

ommodu -o "User Name" -n "User Name/mailnode/IA=user1@domaina.com=user2@domainb.com"

Cheers,

Sascha.

I've posted this elsewere, but I thought it would be ok to post here as well: I performed the above operation, however if the user is logged into the system it fails:

[root@dc1mail01 ~]# ommodu -o "xxxx/dc1mail01,unpluggedcities" -n "xxxx/dc1mail01,unpluggedcities/IA=hfc@dc1mail01.unpluggedcities.com"
ommodu : [OM 8096] The user can't be administered because they are logged on

Any way to admin aliasses when they are logged into ths system?

Thanks
