<header>Manually Edit Aliases</header>
This page allows you to create, edit or delete multiple email aliases at once
by editing them in text format. Not all aliases can be edited - those with
complex destinations or autoresponders are not suitable for the text format
used on this page, and so will not be shown. <p>
In the text box, you must list one alias per line, and each line must
have the following format :<p>
<tt><i>name</i>:[<i>comment</i>]:<i>destination1</i>[:<i>destination2</i>:...]</tt><p>
The meanings of the fields are :<br>
<dl>
<dt>name
<dd>The mailbox name of the alias, with as <i>sales</i>. To create an alias which matches all mail to the domain, enter <i>*</i> here.
<dt>comment
<dd>This optional field can be used to enter a descriptive comment for the alias, such as <i>Corporate sales</i>.
<dt>destination
<dd>One or more destinations can be entered, typically in the form of email addresses to forward mail to, like <i>joe@yourdomain.com</i> or just <i>joe</i>. The following special destinations are also supported :
<ul>
<li><tt>bounce</tt><br>
Creates an alias that bounces email back to the sender.
<li><tt>local <i>username</i></tt><br>
Delivers email directly to the mailbox of the specified user.
</ul>
