< p > To create an mail alias account, you can simply insert a SQL record in table
< code > vmail.alias< / code > . For example:< / p >
< pre > < code class = "mysql" > sql> USE vmail;
sql> INSERT INTO alias (address, goto, domain) \
VALUES ('original@example.com', \
'user1@example.com,user2@example.com,user1@test.com', \
'example.com');
< / code > < / pre >
< p > < strong > NOTES< / strong > :< / p >
< ul >
< li > Please always use lower cases for email addresses.< / li >
< li > Please separated multiple destination addresses by comma.< / li >
< li > If destination address is a user under domain which is hosted on localhost,
it must exist. Otherwise emails sent to alias account will be bounced after
expanded to destination addresses.< / li >

< / ul >
< h2 id = "access-policy" > Access policy< / h2 >
< p > You can restrict which senders are allowed to send email to this mail alias
account by adding proper policy name in SQL column < code > alias.accesspolicy< / code > .
For example:< / p >
< pre > < code > sql> UPDATE alias SET accesspolicy='domain' WHERE address='original@example.com';
< / code > < / pre >
< p > Available access policies are:< / p >
< ul >
< li > < code > public< / code > : no restrictions.< / li >
< li > < code > domain< / code > : all users under same domain are allowed to send email to this mail list.< / li >
< li > < code > subdomain< / code > : all users under same domain and sub-domains are allowed to send email to this mail list.< / li >
< li > < code > membersOnly< / code > : only members of this mail list are allowd.< / li >
< li > < code > moderatorsOnly< / code > : only moderators of this mail list are allowed. Moderators
are email addresses stored in SQL column < code > alias.moderators< / code > . With iRedAPD-1.4.5,
it's ok to use < code > *@domain.com< / code > as (one of) moderator for all users under
mail domain 'domain.com'.< / li >
< li > < code > memebersAndModeratorsOnly< / code > : only members and moderators of this mail list are allowed.< / li >
< / ul >
< p > Access restriction is implemented in iRedAPD (a simple Postfix policy server),
iRedMail has it enabled by default. You'd better check its config file
< code > /opt/iredapd/settings.py< / code > to make sure plugin < code > sql_alias_access_policy< / code > is
enabled in parameter < code > plugins = []< / code > .< / p >
