But, in ealier message:

>948693951.468531 delivery 386: deferral: Unable_to_find_alias_user!/

Check the password file, e.g. using:

  ls -ld / /etc /etc/passwd

The "Unable to find alias user!" message means getpwent("alias")
failed, which means it's either not there, or the process checking
couldn't access the file.
