Third Domain Name "mythirddomainname.com" and Email ID as admin@mythirddomainname.com Here "admin" is a user ID for the doman "mythirddomainname.com" Now "myfirstdomainname.com" , "myseconddomainname.com" and "mythirddomainname.com" have user ID's as "admin", which are 3 different departments and 3 different users.

Since you have admin (example) for your first, second and third domains you can set up unique usernames on email machine and then have the admin@secondomain and thirddomain.com point to the usernames you just created in the alias file. Once done with the aliase file type newaliases on the command line. When you go to pop off the email you use the username and password you created and then in the preferences of you email client have the corresponding email addresses.

Hi Bob,
I created in /etc/aliases file the following lines:
Example:
admin1: admin@myseconddomainname.com
admin2: admin@myfirstdomainname.com
admin3: admin@mythirddomainname.com
and type newaliases on the command line.
This does not work. Please HELP.

This is the wrong-way around. By declaring in aliases "admin1: admin@xyz.dom" you are saying that all main sent to local user "admin1" should be forwarded to "admin@xyz.dom" Instead you want to use the virtusertable ( in /etc/mail ) admin@abc.dom admin1 admin@efg.dom admin2 admin@hij.dom admin3 and so on and so forth... -tosi Þann fimmtudagur 16 ágúst 2001 15:36 skrifaðir þú:

I have never had to use the virtual table. Mine is under the alias file and set up the mx record in the DNS server and setup allow file. But you are right the below admin1: admin@myseconddomainname.com is reversed. Is there any special reson/advantage for using the virtualuser table instead. If there is I will need to change my configuration Bob On Thursday 16 August 2001 10:06 am, Tor Sigurdsson wrote:
