I have a basic question about email configuration through the RaQ 550 
GUI; apologies if this is really obvious, but I've looked through lots 
of archives and support documents and am still not sure I understand it.

The question: Is it possible, using the RaQ 550 GUI (or other 
properly-supported means that won't interfere with the GUI) to create an 
email alias on a virtual site that is independent of the users that have 
been created on that virtual site?

For example: I have a RaQ 550 (raq.example.org) which hosts several 
virtual sites (www.domain-1.org, www.domain-2.org, etc.). I have my own 
server administrator account (lang@raq.example.org) which successfully 
receives email. I would like to get mail that is sent to 
"lang@domain-1.org" and "lang@domain-2.org" to end up in that server 
administrator account.

The only way I can see to do this through the GUI is to create myself a 
a user account in the "www.domain-1.org" virtual site (e.g. named 
"lang2"), add the alias "lang" for the user, and then set up mail 
forwarding for the user.

This seems really wasteful and it's very tedious to set up for many 
domains. Is there a simpler way? I really really don't want to do 
anything incompatible with the GUI, so I'd rather not edit /etc/aliases 
(or whatever) unless I can be sure it's a safe and supported procedure.

Thanks for any insight.
Regards,
Al.
