[TriLUG] handling email aliases for large numbers of emails

[Errol Casey]

I was wondering how other admins, handle aliases that are used to receive 
cron daemon notices, and other system messages.

I'm thinking of changing the alias to use one mailbox instead of forwarding 
to multiple; and then provide some web interface to review the email.

The other option would be to change cron and scripts, to use syslog and 
force the logs to a centralized syslog server.

How have others done it? I've used mhonarc in the past for mail archiving 
and indexing, but it doesn't provide a search/filter interface.
