<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Charles spotted a good point. I used <A

returning errors; sort these first and the trouble shooting of the aliases will
be far easier:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Hi Frank,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>there appear to be DNS and hostname issues.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The hostname "<A href="http://systea.fr">systea.fr</A>" uses CNAME
records.</DIV>
<DIV>Will not work, use A records only.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Cheers,</DIV>

class=gmail_quote>Hi guys<BR><BR>On a BO box already in production, emails
are working, but I now want<BR>use mail aliases.<BR>But all aliases return
"user unknown...". It's like<BR>virtusertable file was not used, but
aliases.db ? I've no more idea.<BR>Please heeeelp !<BR><BR>I tried
:<BR> makemap hash /etc/mail/mailertable <
/etc/mail/mailertable<BR> makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db <
/etc/mail/access<BR> makemap hash /etc/mail/virtusertable.db <
/etc/mail/virtusertable<BR> /etc/init.d/sendmail
restart<BR><BR>and then to be sure :<BR> cd /etc/mail<BR> make
clean<BR> make<BR> /etc/init.d/sendmail restart<BR><BR>For
example, I've an alias "frank.soyer" on a "fsoyer" user :<BR># sendmail -bv
<A
href="mailto:fsoyer@systea.net">fsoyer@systea.net</A><BR>fsoyer@systea.net...
deliverable: mailer local, user fsoyer<BR><BR># sendmail -bv <A
href="mailto:frank.soyer@systea.net">frank.soyer@systea.net</A><BR>frank.soyer@systea.net...
User unknown<BR><BR>I also have an alias "f.soyer" on this user. But
on another domain<BR>"<A href="http://systea.fr"
target=_blank>systea.fr</A>" on the same host I have a *user*
f.soyer.<BR>Normally, <A
href="mailto:f.soyer@systea.net">f.soyer@systea.net</A> should point to
fsoyer in the domain<BR><A href="http://systea.net"
target=_blank>systea.net</A>, but :<BR># sendmail -bv <A
href="mailto:f.soyer@systea.net">f.soyer@systea.net</A><BR>f.soyer@systea.net...
deliverable: mailer local, user f.soyer<BR><BR>And more : I tried alias
names "support" and "info", and receive :<BR># sendmail -bv <A
href="mailto:support@systea.net">support@systea.net</A><BR>admin...
deliverable: mailer local, user admin<BR># sendmail -bv <A
href="mailto:info@systea.net">info@systea.net</A><BR>admin... deliverable:
mailer local, user admin<BR><BR>"admin" ??? Oh yes : this two aliases are in
aliases file, pointing to<BR>the user admin !<BR>So I suppose that sendmail
use aliases.db but not virtusertable.db.<BR><BR>Then :<BR># sendmail -d60.5
