To: "apollo" You may not have a bug. You mmight have forgotten something.... When we were setting up sendmail (no, it's still not set up right in all ways), we had the same problem. Another person here (I won't grab the glory) talked w/ an Apollo Engineer who used to work here at SSEC (nice to have friends), and together they tracked it down. We needed to create the aliases database before sendmail would be willing to work. That's do-able by executing /usr/ucb/newaliases Hope it fixes you up....
