If an alias has multiple destinations, multiple records exist, due to the nature of the database. address_list would then return the same alias multiple times, which does not add any information, eats screen space and is potentially confusing. Therefore, we SELECT DISTINCTly from the alias table. Signed-off-by: martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> --- VirtualMailManager/common.py | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)

  of the relocated user use :meth:`set_destination`. Use :meth:`delete` in
  order to delete the relocated user from the database.
