NEWALIASES 1 "$Date: 2013-11-22 20:51:56 $"
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
2i /etc/mail/aliases The mail aliases file
SEE ALSO
