Hello Edgar,

Sorry

This is a very simple question but yet 
didn't find the answer.I have a machine m1 which is a webserver.
On 
openbsd there are daily reports and I want them to be sent to an 
external address.


# grep ^root /etc/mail/aliasesroot: [email protected]


After modifying the aliases files I run the command

# newaliases

My opensmtpd configuration is very simple

listen on lo0
table aliases file:/etc/mail/aliases
accept from local for any relay via smtp://192.168.1.1
As I'm writing this message I realise that the line "table aliases 
file:/etc/mail/aliases" is useless, but fair enough.


My problem is when I do:

# mail -s "Resolv" root < /etc/resolv.conf

it writes to [email protected] instead of [email protected]

So it looks like the aliases file is ignored. Do you know why ?
What's the right way to do it ?My web server should use my local mail server as 
a relay which is going to sign emails etc.
Thank you
