Subject:[courier-users] subdomain aliasActions...

Forgive me if this is an easy question, but I have not yet found the solution.

We want courier to accept all mail designated to a subdomain and route it to one account for parsing. Specifically, all mail to support.dyna-q.com should be routed to the supp@dyna-q.com account. Seems like it should be easy, right?

Here's our setup: we have no hosted domains so the hosteddomains file is empty. The esmtpacceptmailfor file and the locals file both have the lines:

dyna-q.com .dyna-q.com

Which allows the server to properly accept mail to supp@dyna-q.com and supp@anything.dyna-q.com (but not to 12@anything.dyna-q.com, of course).

I tried removing the second line (the .dyna-q.com) from the local and esmtpacceptmailfor files and then adding this line to the aliases:

@support.dyna-q.com: support

but that didn't work. Nor did the other various combinations of settings in these files that I tried.

Can anyone suggest to me a way to do this? I assume it's possible. FWIW we're using courier 0.35.0.
