used to replace local /etc/aliases files with LDAP.</p><p>Note: Use the <a class="link" href="ch04s02.html#mailAliasesUser" title="Mail aliases">mail alias user
module</a> to manage mail aliases on user pages.</p><p>All accounts of this type are based on the "nisMailAlias" object
class and may have "cn" and "rfc822MailMember" attributes. To activate
this type please add "Mail aliases" in your LAM server profile:</p><div class="screenshot"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/nisMailAlias1.png"></div></div><p>You need to select the Mail aliases module on the next tab.</p><div class="screenshot"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/nisMailAlias3.png"></div></div><p>The mail aliases will then appear as separate tab inside LAM.
