Summary: deleting its alias deletes a mailbox

Initial Comment:
When someone deletes the alias that points to a mailbox, thinking it's extra, postfixadmin actually deletes the mailbox itself -- including calling the $CONF['mailbox_postdeletion_script'] 

I thought I'd simply edit the languages/en.lang since most all our domain admins are english speaking, but the 
$PALANG['confirm'] = 'Are you sure you want to delete this?\n'; is used all sorts of places so it doesn't work to add a (specifig) warning here.

Really what I think should happen is that when attempting to delete an alias, it is checked to see weather this is a mailbox alias, and if so, give the admin an error message. . .

I know we could turn off $CONF['alias_control_admin'] but we do want admins to be able to edit mailbox aliases.

I guess I can clarify this.

- In 2.1, every mailbox had an alias in the alias list.
- In current SVN, the alias is listed in the mailbox table ("edit alias"
link, next 
  to the "edit mailbox" link)

This means: The behaviour is the same, but thanks to the re-arrangement of
the table, it is clearly understandable now that both alias and mailbox
will be deleted.

I can't replicate this in the current subversion version.

I'm closing this ticket for now - but if it is actually still a problem
(and I'm stupid/incapable of testing or whatever), please reopen it and
we'll take another look

thanks!
David.
