I don't use .mail_aliases, I use /etc/aliases. You just put the name, separated by a tab to the corresponding user. For example: postmaster root Then, type: # newaliases After you are done editing the file. I'm not sure if you do the same thing for postfix though, since I use sendmail. --bhishan > > I have a server that is running free bsd. How do I set up an email alias? I have already made the .mail_aliases file. Do I just add an "alias coolalias blakeeb@yahoo.com" entry? > > PLEASE REPLY! > > > > --------------------------------- > Do You Yahoo!? > Send online invitations with Yahoo! Invites.
