If so, and if your aliases are in /etc/aliases, after setting
up postfix, run
postalias /etc/aliases
Have a look at /etc/postfix/main.cf, looking for the alias_maps
parameter. On our list server, this looks like:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
hash:/etc/aliases.d/mailman
because I find it convenient to keep our mailman aliases in a
separate file. After changing that,
postalias /etc/aliases.d/mailman
Some distributions may place Postfix's default alias file in
/etc/postfix/aliases. If so, you can either copy your aliases
file, or change the alias_maps parameter.
