as the name mailAlternateAddress suggests, it is used for _addidtional_
alternate adresses, other than 'mail'.
ie:
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mailAlternateAddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mailAlternateAddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
so, joe will receive mails sent to any of these adresses to his
'mailMessageStore', provided that the domains are local ;-)
btw, please read 'life with qmail-ldap', a quite neat howto.
