sendmail question

[Dennis Young]

I found that the problem was sitting in the chair in front of the 
computer.  I didn't realize that the aliases file was located in /etc. 
when i didn't see one in /etc/mail I incorrectly created the file.

duh!  So i made the changes in the /etc/aliases file and now all is well.


Thanks for you help.
