plesk 1.6 api + mail alias

[joshua strebel]

I am trying to add a mail alias via the api 1.6 with plesk 9.2.1


$alias = 'foo'

<mail>
			<update>
				<set>
					<filter>
					<domain_id>$domainId</domain_id>
					<mailname>
					<name>$n</name>
					<alias>$alias</alias>
					</mailname>
					</filter>
				</set>
			</update>
		</mail>

And get back

   [status] => error
            [errcode] => 1029
            [errtext] => Authentification method is not specified

when passing the clients username,password in the packet. Is this command only work with admin credentials?

If I do use admin creds in packet..
I get

[status] => error
                                    [errcode] => 1023
                                    [errtext] =>  : Invalid mail alias.

Any have a code example of setting a mail alias by the api?
