I don't think you have that problem yet -- I don't see a mob banging on the doors of this thread crying, "Me! Me!". Personally I suggest KISS. Set up the alias, have it target 2 people, advertise it on the web site, move on. This email took me 200% as long to type than it would have taken me to set up the actual alias... ssh -t hermes.apache.org sudo -u apmail tee \~apmail/.qmail-incubator-ombudsm\{a,e\}n <<< $'w...@apache.org\ndanie...@apache.org\n' --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
