Zot-Dispatch has two ways of restricting to whom e-mail is sent. The first involves chopping everything after and including the "@" in an e-mail address. The second involves an alias file.
Address Chopping
Zot-Dispatch can be configured to chop off everything after and including the "@" in an e-mail address. This limits the e-mail to users on the server's machine. If the e-mail address entered into Zot-Dispatch is:
someuser@somewhere or someuser@somewhere, someotheruser@some.other.placeIt will be cut down to:
someuserThe above is correct. When the address chopping option is enabled, only the first address in each variable is used (everything after the first "@" is chopped off). If more than one address is in a variable, then the extras will be deleted. The way to get around this is to enter multiple addresses into input variables of the same name. In order to turn on the address chopping, set the variable "$Chop_Address" at the top of the source to Zot-Dispatch to "1" (Just the number one).
Near the top of the source code of Zot-Dispatch there is a variable called "$Alias_File." If that variable is empty, then no alias file will be consulted. However, if that variable contains the name of a Zot-Dispatch alias file, then every address that is to have e-mail sent to it will be looked up in the alias file. If it is found, the e-mail will be sent to the address in the file, otherwise the address is used the way it is.
Right now this option will only work if you have the e-mail address chopping feature on also. There are no plans to change this anytime soon.
The alias file to be used should have on each line, the alias, followed by a colon, followed by the e-mail address associated with that alias. Anything except this format should not work.
