Re: [SOLVED] Sogo mail aliases

I used this guide and it works but I received this same effect by add mail alias in  shadowAddress in user settings. It works but is it the right way ?
I would use alias only for one specific user.

Re: [SOLVED] Sogo mail aliases

*) Mail alias account is a separate account just like mailing list (or mail group), it doesn't have a mailbox, it simply forwards received emails to members of this mail alias account.
*) User alias address (shadowAddress) is used to bind multiple email addresses to one mailbox. Emails sent to user alias addresses will be delivered to the SAME mailbox.
