Aliasing question

I’m currently setting up the queues I will use within RT. I have three
queues. My question is in regards to mail aliases.

If I have a queue called support@mydomain.com, is it ok to alias
support-comment@mydomain.com to the support address. I’m using postfix
1.1.5 and the alias would look like this in the virtual file

support-comment@mydomain.com support

The aliases file will still contain the line

support-comment: “|/path/to/rt/bin/rt-mailgate --queue support --action
comment”

Can I do this, or do I need to create a seperate account for all the
-comment addresses?

Thanks
Sean

What are you going to use for your “–action correspond” command if you’re
going to alias the -comment account to the “–action comment” command?

(Rhetorical question) :slight_smile:

You should keep them separate, unless you’re doing some other funky odd
stuff…
