I have a Zimbra mail domain which I will call "domain_old". I plan on creating a domain alias using instructions found in
Managing Domains and also masquerade this domain using domain canonical address also using instructions from Managing Domains. I will call this pseudo domain "domain_new".
If I am correct, this process will allow
user@domain_old.com to receive mail under the alias
user@domain_new.com, as well as send mail as
user@domain_new.com.
My questions:
*** My goal is to create domain_new addresses to send and receive mail without having to create two separate mailboxes. Does the method above make sense with this goal in mind?
***Management wants to change the format of email addresses from
jsmith@domain_old.com to
john.smith@domain_new.com. Is there a zimbra CLI method i can use to create canonical addresses for individual accounts, similar to
(for aliases) so I can write a script to automate this? Will canonical addresses in individual accounts interfere with my domain masquerade (domain canonical address)?
Thanks in advance for any help/tips. This forum has already been extremely helpful to me.
