Make it possible to reorder aliases

Open yannikbloscheck opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

I have a lot e-mail aliases and as they appear in the random order I have added them it can be difficult to get a good overview or find a specific alias. Therefore it would be nice, if it were possible to reorder them. Alternatively the second best and maybe easier solution would be, if they were ordered alphabetical by domain and then the local part (e.g. [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]).

Adding some thoughts:

  • This is not only about aliases, but also the primary address.
  • It seems that there is a list of addresses in the DB
    • new addresses are appended
    • edits are implemented as remove & add
    • the primary email is just the first element of this list
    • as a consequence, changing the primary email requires rotating all aliases
  • It's relevant because the primary address is used as sender for redirected mails. https://github.com/stalwartlabs/stalwart/discussions/1517
