==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF MY IREDMAIL SERVER ====

Hello! Following the instructions (http://www.iredmail.org/docs/sql.create.mail.alias.html), I'm trying to create an alias for the user. However, MariaDB reports that the "vmail" database does not exist. I looked through the available databases and did not find the "forwarding" and "alias" tables in them

```
MariaDB [(none)]> USE vmail
ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database 'vmail'
MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW DATABASES;
+-----------------------------+
| Database                    |
+-----------------------------+
| amavisd                      |
| fail2ban                       |
| information_schema   |
| iredadmin                    |
| iredapd                        |
| mysql                          |
| performance_schema |
| phpmyadmin               |
| roundcubemail            |
| sogo                            |
+-----------------------------+
```
Now it is done in a different way?

Re: Creating email aliases

You're running OpenLDAP backend, so you need this tutorial instead:
