Author Define email aliases in Server2k3's SMTP/POP3?
Joe

We are using the builtin SMTP/POP3 services in Server2K3. We are using
Active Directory Integrated mode for POP3.

I would like the ability to define aliases (like jobs@domain.com getting
"forwarded" to someone@domain.com). I would like to do this without the
need to create a new user in AD just for this purpose.

Possible? How?

Thanks in advance,

Joe

No, it is not possible, the built in smtp and pop3 services only offers
basic email services. What you could do is create a script that pulls the
mailbox folder of the folder you want to redirect and then resend them or
move them to another folder.

You could also write a script that registers into the smpt service that
changes the recipient of incoming messages.

Ah, the 1st option intrigues me.

So what you are saying is that I can write a script that regularly runs and
copies from the alias drop location into the real email drop location.

Followup question please? I am using an active directory integrated pop
server configuration. Is it possible to create addresses in this
configuration that are not users in active directory? ie, "private" email
addresses that do not belong to any active directory user per se.

Thanks for your help,

joe
