ALIAS_MANAGER(8)

NAME
alias_manager (or alias_manager.pl) - manage Sympa aliases

alias_manager add | del listname domain

DESCRIPTION
Alias_manager is a program that helps in installing aliases for newly created lists and deleting aliases for closed lists.

Administrators using MTA functionalities to manage aliases (ie virtual_regexp and transport_regexp with postfix) can disable alias management by setting sendmail_aliases configuration parameter to none.

del listname domain
    Remove the set of aliases for the mailing list listname in the domain domain.
