From 046ccfc38574067978349cd8e48de1498b78f803 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steffen Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2019 20:33:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Clarify catch-all aliases with alias-domains The docs don't yet mention alias domains and their effect when using catch-all aliases for a domain within mailcow. This added example should clarify that any mail send to an alias domain will in fact be delivered to the catch-all alias on the target domain, which is in contrast to specific aliases added for a single mailbox. --- docs/model-sender_rcv.md | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/model-sender_rcv.md b/docs/model-sender_rcv.md index 46287e1de..38be6ffcd 100644 --- a/docs/model-sender_rcv.md +++ b/docs/model-sender_rcv.md @@ -21,6 +21,14 @@ It is important to know, that you are not able to receive mail for `my-alias@my- me@example.org is NOT known as alias@alias.com. +Please note that this does not apply to catch-all aliases: + + Alias domain alias.com is added and assigned to primary domain example.org + me@example.org is assigned the catch-all alias @example.org + me@example.org is still just known as me@example.org, which is the only available send-as option + + Any email send to alias.com will match the catch-all alias for example.org + Administrators and domain administrators can edit mailboxes to allow specific users to send as other mailbox users ("delegate" them).
