I know this is an old thread but I was going through these trying to solve the same problem. The error message finally made me realize how to do it - you submit a list of aliases and you need to make sure the existing primary email, email1 (if exists) and default sender are all in this list.
so if there is just a primary (also def. sender) do as above but -a primaryemail@domain.tld,newalias@domain.tld
Anyway, this worked for me.

Guest repliedI see. Many thanks for Information, Mani. Reply by developers regarding mail alias would be appreciated as well and may there's another way to solve this.

Guest repliedI added the aliases manually in the table "user_attribute".
Maybe this is not right way, but it works...
Just give the 2 Mail-Addresses the same id.
You can get the id for an user in the table "login2user".
For example:
Code:| cid | id | name | value | 1 | 4 | alias | [email]mail1@example.com[/email] | 1 | 4 | alias | [email]mail2@example.com[/email]
greetings mani

Guest repliedI havn't found a solution for adding mail aliases yet, what means it is quite interesting to know how this should work.
All what I know is, it works really fine with OX5.

Guest repliedFound a few Tricks
I attempted to use /opt/open-xchange/sbin/changeuser to add aliases to a user, however get the following error message:
user roman.hultay in context 1 could not be changed:
Server response:
primaryMail, Email1 and defaultSenderAddress must be present in set of aliases.
The syntax I was using is: ./changeuser -A oxadmin -P secret -c 1 -u theusername -a useralias@domain.tld
When I try to use MySQL to insert into address_mappings, I do not know the values for 'cid' and 'id' to input, therefore am keeping my hands off.
Any help would be appreciated.

Mail Aliases
I have a series of e-mail accounts setup in OX, however want to add aliases for these accounts.
I have tried defining the aliases in /etc/mail/aliases, however, it would appear that in main.cf for postfix, there is a specification for ox_virtual_addresses.
How do I add aliases to the database?Tags: None
