#4 Re: Question: How to expire/deactivate inactive us Posted by Steve (82.41.xx.xx) on Mon 7 Mar 2005 at 01:34 I guess one way to move forward would be to use the system's /etc/aliases file, or similar, to redirect mail to the correct users. So instead of having two users bob and support you just have the bob user - and inside your /etc/aliases file you add: support : bob Once you run newaliases bob should now get all mail addressed to support. (Depending on the mail server you're using this might be ignored - but if not it's a very simple solution which might allow you to cut down on your login accounts)Steve -- Steve.org.uk
