My question has to do with Appian's configuration to process items from an incoming distribution list. It is my understanding that Appian will only process items if the distribution list alias has been configured on the server. If the alias does not exist, then Appian will not create an item and the e-mail will be scanned and then ignored. Since we have many teams that will add our main distribution list to other distribution lists, we end up getting important items dropped. I am wondering if there is a way to configure the utility to open up an Appian item to a default process flow when no alias configuration is present. Is that possible within Appian or does this issue need to be addressed within Outlook?...

Jerry, assuming you're talking about consuming external Emails in Appian, Appian can consume any email address as long as its configured in the custom.properties. The alias is required where there is a redirect or the mailbox is recognized by an Alias within the server. Having said that, can you explain with an example what you're tying to do?
