What this probably means is you're trying to alias on username to somewhere else not local (for example george to george@aol.com or vice versa). To set that up, you need to set up a virtual mapping - it's an option you can feed into the sendmail package and it will create a sendmail.cf file that will allow you to do this. Check www.sendmail.org for instructions on how to do it (I believe they're on there). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan A.
