virtual alias maps with database

Hi Everybody,

i was wondering, when using a virtual alias map that's
stored in a db, how are aliases to multiple recipients
stored? Do i put a row for every recipient or do i insert
a single row and store a comma separated list for the recipients,
as usual?

Cheers
Tobias

I haven't tried it, but the man pages say for virtual aliases:

More details about the virtual alias file are given in the virtual(5) manual
page, including multiple addresses on the right-hand side.


The format of the alias database input file is as follows:

· An alias definition has the form

name: value1, value2, ...
