The above doesn't work because running /usr/lib/mailman/bin/genaliases will rebuild /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases and undo all your changes. What you need to run after editing /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases is postalias /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases to rebuild the /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases.db file, but this is fragile because running genaliases or equivalent at any time in the future will again undo your changes. You need to make a second set, e.g., /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases2 and /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases2.db with the same ownership and permissions as the existing ones, perhaps by cd /usr/lib/mailman/data/ cp -a aliases aliases2 cp -a aliases.db aliases2.db make your changes to aliases2 and run 'postalias aliases2' to update aliases2.db and then add hash:/usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases2 to your Postfix config. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
