Title: Virtuser?
Post by: gbainbridge on May 19, 2008, 06:42:56 AM
Hi I'm trying to understand more about RoundCubeMail.

How do I create and use a virtuser file please?

Quote// Path to a virtuser table file to resolve user names and e-mail addresses
$rcmail_config['virtuser_file'] = '';

Bumping this old post because I would also like to know. Is it just a text file with no extension stored on the server? Is it a table in the db? The example is etc/mail/virtuser, but I don't see a etc directory.

The virtuser file is usually a file used by mailers like sendmail en postfix to assign email adresses to usernames (login names). It's just plaintext and the mailers compile that file for their own use.

Format:

[email protected] user1
[email protected] user1
[email protected] user2

I need some alias names. I already found the field in the database to put in an alias. But for special reason I would prefer to handle it in a file. I found the hint in trac (#1396161 (Allow Login via [email] / [passwort] ) ? RoundCube Webmail (http://trac.roundcube.net/ticket/1396161)) But how must the file be specified?

email@address/login-name/alias?

Greetings,
Ralf

edit: I reopend the feature request ;-)
