Subject: [Kolab-devel] Differencies between "Distribution list" and
"Alias"concept

Hi all,

i'm attempting to setup some email alias in a kolab installation.

The problem i found is that the only way to setup an email alias for a
local domain which forward the message to email of external domain is:

Go to Addressbook
Create a new vCard
Go to Distribution List
Create Distribution List

Otherwise is not possible to setup "distribution list" in which the
members are external to the "ldap defined" objects.

Imho in a standard email usage this would be quite complex and time
expensive.

Why just not allow every email to be put in a Distribution List and
threat them as standard email alias?

There is some strict reason to keep the concept of distribution list
just limited to local email addresses?

Fabio
