Lat-pseudonyms

lat-pseudonyms

The lazy administrator's tool to add pseudonyms

DESCRIPTION

      Adds or deletes e-mail pseudonyms to existing user or group accounts on
      Mitel's SME servers (5.x/6.x).  This tool is functionally equivalent to
      the 'Pseudonyms' option in the server-manager, but can be run from the
      command line or called from an other script.  It allows you, for exam-
      ple, to create a large number of e-mail aliases in a batch process, or
      delete the standard pseudonyms on a remote machine via an ssh console.

      See /usr/doc/lazy-admin-tools/example.pseudonyms for the format of the
      input file.
