Forgive the new guy for the old question, but I yet to find a reasonable
answer in the archives...(This started as trying to install Mailman, btw.)
I have an aliases/system file, which contains the following line:
test: derek
Mail, as it should, is forwarded from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Now change the line to:
test: | tee /tmp/tee.txt
or
test: "| tee /tmp/tee.txt"
or
test: | "tee /tmp/tee.txt"
per suggestions in other e-mails, and all 3 return:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
<<< 550 User unknown.
(I've tried it with other commands other than tee, btw - same result)
makealiases -chk works, and I can see the .xalias in the -dump
I do not have any other alias files, nor am I using virtual domains.
I understand that the 550 User unknown error means my alias is bad, what I
need to understand is WHY it is bad, esp. when I've used other people's
working examples.
Is there some other feature I'm not aware of what prevents aliases from
running programs?
Thanks,
