4.3 Release system, /usr/ports/mail/postfix port.

When receiving mail, postfix complains that it cannot open /etc/aliases.db. I modifed the main.cf file and set $aliases_database to
point to /etc/mail/aliases.db but postfix still complained about /etc/aliases.db.

Obviously I can copy aliases.db to /etc, but there must be something else I've inadvertently missed, any hints ?

Thanks in advance,
H.
