I'm afraid I don't really understand your problem :-(
Therefore I'll give a short explanation about what is allowed for alias 
domains.

It is no problem to have several domains (on the "from" side of the 
alias) pointing to the same target domain, for example
    foo.com -> example.com
    bar.com -> example.com

However, a domain that is already used on the "to" side can't be used on 
the "from" side of another alias domain. For example, if you have the 
two alias domains listed above, you can't do
    example.com -> foobar.com   # not allowed
This is a restriction we intentionally included because it is the 
easiest way to avoid loops.

If this does not answer your question, please send an example what you 
manually had to add to the database so that I can understand your 
problem.

Oh, hast du noch "Freundin 1.3"? Ab 2.0 beherrscht zumindest die
OS-Version Suspend-to-Disco und Suspend-to-MOM, teste die doch mal
an :-) Klappt hier ganz prima.
