If so, try turning it off; your system might be "hanging" trying to resolve the right-hand side of each alias through DNS. If not, try running `newaliases -on' to check the right-hand side of the aliases. You might also try `sendmail -bi' just in case newaliases got hosed somehow. If this doesn't help, I would be happy to look at your aliases file(s). -- Regards, Norman C. Rice, Jr.
