Yes I checked the sendmail.cf entry for where the aliases file is located. I even tried changing the entry to a new location and creating an aliases file there. Again it didn't help.

I have other boxes running sendmail and they don't have this problem, which is why it is so puzzling to me. -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
