Alias.guide describes a restriction on group aliases like otest in your
example:

	"The significant limitation with group aliases is
	that each of the people in the list must be a
	previously defined aliasname in either the
	existing alias file or the system alias file or a
	valid destination on the current machine."

You must define scott and davidc as aliases in your alias file or the
system alias file.
