Hello!
What is best practise if i need mail redirection to another mail address?
For example: [mail123@myyunohostdomain.de](mailto:mail123@myyunohostdomain.de) → [mail123@gmx.de](mailto:mail123@gmx.de)
Simple solution would be to create a dummy user.
Another solution is shown here: [https://forum.yunohost.org/t/add-a-redirection-mail-alias-without-attaching-it-to-a-yunohost-account](https://forum.yunohost.org/t/add-a-redirection-mail-alias-without-attaching-it-to-a-yunohost-account)
What do you think?
Thank you!

Pending you get an answer in the thread you mentioned, yes, a dummy user with no permissions (or maybe only the email one?) and the redirection set in their profile will do the job.
