Hi Philip, Hopefully this will help. Here is the .aliases file:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When testing [EMAIL PROTECTED], it successfully matches then then the rest of the routers continue with [EMAIL PROTECTED] What happens is that it doesn't re-evaluate the aliases file to match [EMAIL PROTECTED] This could be considered a dangerous thing to do since it could cause mail loops. Please feel free to tell me so!
