             Summary: Alias: using existing users as alias source
                 Key: JAMES-3102
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-3102
             Project: James Server
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: RRT, webadmin
            Reporter: Benoit Tellier
             Fix For: 3.5.0


We are using LDAP repository.

User A had been changing name (to user B) and both entries exist in the LDAP. 
We cannot delete user A from the LDAP

Thus we want to be able to 'force' the alias insertion despite the rule that a 
user can't be used as an alias source.

Traffic of user A will effectively be redirected to user B. Moreover User B 
will still be able to send mails using user A identify (not possible with 
forwards).

The proposal is to introduce a new query parameter allowing to bypass the 
check, while keeping the behaviour untouched otherwise.

Example:

{code:java}
curl -XPUT 
http://ip:port/address/aliases/[email protected]/sources/[email protected]?bypassUserCheck
{code}
