Topic: iRedMail EE - Alias Delivery Restrictions?

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): iRedMail EE 1.7.4
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer? Enterprise Edition
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 24.04
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): LDAP
- Web server (Apache or Nginx):
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro? Enterprise Edition
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====

Newly created alias accounts show "Moderators" for "Mail Deliver Restriction", where old alias accounts show "Unrestricted".

I created a new alias today, first one in a long while. I don't want to create these throwaway aliases as mailing lists because they are effectively single-use. All of my previously created aliases show "Unrestricted" and the new one says "Moderators" under the column "Mail Deliver Restriction".

I tried sending an email to this alias from an external account, and it went through fine.

Is this just a cosmetic error?

Re: iRedMail EE - Alias Delivery Restrictions?

When setting up an alias in 1.7.4, I think there was a radio button choice for "Who can send email to this account" with "Moderators" checked by default. When I created the above alias, I chose "Unrestricted"

After creation, the list showed "Moderators", and clicking on it didn't have a place to choose a different restriction.

I've updated to 1.8.1, and now clicking on the alias shows the "Access Policy" section, and I was able to choose "Unrestricted" and it stuck.

Are aliases officially mailing lists under the covers now, regardless of if they are created with the Alias workflow?
