I am the one who maintains our hosting account for our company, thus creating e-mail accounts & forwarders for various aliases. OK, here's the problem: Let's say I have a forwarder called office@domain.net that goes to everybody in the office. This works great, except I keep getting requests from people to have the list of people receiving the messages show up in their TO: or CC: fields once they type in the name of the alias. I've explained a number of times why this can't happen, but apparently this is unacceptable to them. So, does anybody have any ideas or alternate suggestions? I don't consider each person keeping their own aliases up to date an acceptable solution because people would immediately forget to update their local lists and somebody will miss an important message. Thanks!

Mav, Wasn't asking, just commenting.

Today, all of us at the office that use Mozilla for e-mail started getting an error that said that the certificate had changed, and were unable to send e-mail until we changed the outgoing mail server to never use SSL. Any idea what changed?

hmmm, it doesn't recognize Opera! You are You are running on...

Phew, I'd never learn anything that way!

Is there an easier way to edit e-mail forwards than using the web interface? Maybe by editing a file in my account or something? Thanks!

Has anybody noticed that those 15+3 new emoticons are making the posting page 15 miles long?

neat subtracting machine iffy, it's helpful to know that a + NaN = 15

15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 x 15 = 437,893,890,380,859,375

Using smtpsend here in a locally executed script we were unable to send e-mails from a non-existant address. Once I added a forward from the non-existant address to a real address everything worked fine. This happened twice, both times the sam solution fixed the problem.

it can run linuX!

Ah ha! Lucky guy! (refering to your resolution in the other thread) Thanks Ian. I'm having the same problems you are referring to. I have to manualy do a cd, then . .profile every time I sign in to get things set up how I need them. So far it seems OK, I just hope I don't run into any problems in the future. Its funny how the $HOME variable is set, cd takes me to my home directory, but I start out in the / directory.

Thank you KW. After playing with jailshell a little bit, it seems to work acceptably if I manually run my .profile to update my paths and aliases, but I can't seem to find any information about it either online, nor with an info nor man page.

Yikes! I just signed in to see what shell I had (since I didn't seem to remember it being jailshell, but rather bash), and it seems I've been changed as well! I don't know anything about jailshell... what are the differences? A few things I noticed: My .profile is no longer being used!!!!! - Thus, my aliases don't work - My path's aren't being set Is jailshell the ONLY shell option? Was everybody changed over, even previous bash users?
