When I run newaliases I get: /etc/sendmail/aliases: line xx: cannot alias non-local names a bunch of times. Anybody got a clue as to whats wrong? Also there are aliases in netinfo, does sendmail use these. I notice that sendmail complains into the syslog when the /etc/sendmail alias dbm files are not set up so I assume that sendmail uses those files and not netinfo. Anybody know about this?
