Hello,
 
I was wondering if there was a wildcard alias for sendmail.  I would like
the /etc/aliases.db to be scanned for name matches, and finding no match,
default to one particular account.  This is a breeze for virtual domains,
but I am not sure of the appropriate method to use for the actual real host
itself.  I thought the following entry (last line) in the /etc/aliases file
might work:

        *:              sysadmin

But no joy. :^(

Thanks,
