  • NAME
      newaliases - rebuild the data base for the mail aliases file
  • SYNOPSIS
      newaliases
  • DESCRIPTION
      Newaliases rebuilds the random access data base for the mail aliases file /etc/mail/aliases.  It must be run each time this file is changed in order for the change to take effect.

      Newaliases is identical to ``sendmail -bi''.

      The newaliases utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

      Notice: do not use makemap to create the aliases data base, because newaliases puts a special token into the data base that is required by sendmail.
  • FILES
