X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 09 Nov 2008 12:19:07 -0000 I just noticed that I have one in /etc/mail and one in /etc, and postfix is reading the one in /etc which the newaliases command hasn't touched in ages 'cause it's been updating the one in /etc/mail. /etc/mail looks like a sendmail thing. Should I just symlink /etc/aliases.db to /etc/mail/aliases.db if I'm running postfix? Thanks, Mike -- Michael P. Soulier "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...
