Hi,
thank you :) now it works..
I always used newaliases as:
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
to generate aliases.db, as I said on my other FreeBSD 4.x systems I have never
experienced problems so far.
I used postmap hash:aliases, it complained for : signs, so I removed them.
Should also I change that newaliases symlink to /usr/local/sbin/postmap (now
it is linked to /usr/sbin/mailwrapper)?
cheers,
Martin
