Hi @theoneandonly-vector,

can you explain a bit more what you mean with:

won't add a mailbox to my user

Having an alias does not mean that there will be another mailbox for the user, the user will simply have another address that will deliver to the same mailbox.

this isn't working right now: "the user will simply have another address that will deliver to the same mailbox"

so I want this: "Expected behavior I want to receive e-mails on a second mail-address."

I just gave this a quick try on my local system. user1 has in addition to this own address also two aliases:

SMTP:user1@kopano.demo
smtp:Jonas@kopano.demo
smtp:Jonas.Brekke@kopano.demo

(user1@kopano.demo is his main address, the other two are aliases)

I've sent a mail to Jonas@kopano.demo and the mail was delivered for the user.

I changed the wrong field. As I am using Univention it won't be the field under "Mail" but under "Contact"
