    Another interesting question...

    I am trying to leverage alias.cfg to route messages from "alias" addresses, for example, dmarc@caughtinadream.com, to route to an external e-mail address. I have alias.cfg configured as such:

    dmarc@* external@domain.com
    postmaster@* external@domain.com

    These messages are getting bounced as no user exists by those names with SBBS.

    Thoughts?

    The alias.cfg file is used for destination of inbound SMTP message aliasing. If you want to modify "from" (sender) names or addresses for inbound SMTP, you'd have to use an external mail processor (see exec/mailproc_example.js).

    Thank you. That is aiming me in the right direction.

    Much appreciation!
