The "nobody" alias is a catch-all alias which receives messages from users that do not exist on your host, and forwards the message to the address specified in the "nobody" alias.
Note: "nobody" alias will prevent messages from bouncing back to the sender.
To create a "nobody" alias simply follow instructions for adding a standard alias, with the standard alias name being "nobody".
Example:
If I have a standard "nobody" alias pointing to "unknown@mydomain.com" and a message with an invalid address to "gone@mydomain.com" arrives, the message is forwarded to the unknown@mydomain.com mailbox.
This can be useful when a company wants to be sure that all messages are received and answered.
