It would certainly help if you included the exact error messages and the list of commands you use to get there... Check that the alias file, the directory it is in, and all directories above, are not "groupe writeable". Recent sendmail refuse to work if this is not enforced (at least for sendmail.cf, I'm unsure about the aliases file). -- Pierre.Beyssac@hsc.fr
