I tried to create a new file, for the local domain, and placed alias
definitions in there, but I was unable to get this to work properly.  I
created (for example) a localdomain.com file, and put the following entry
in it:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

and then ran makealiases.  However, email to this new alias is bounced
"User Unknown"...  I also tried using the webadmin interface to create the
alias, which yielded a webadmin file in the aliases dir containing pretty
much the same thing, but still to no avail.
    

Is "localdomain.com" a local domain (i.e. in your locals file)?  If so, then
it gets stripped off the address and your alias should look like this:

alias: realname

Ah, thanks.  I tried that, and now I'm getting a different error:

<<< configuration error: mail loops back to myself (MX problem).

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Kevin
