yes. i tried a few things to start troubleshooting. first, i
removed the " " space between each user:
abuse: charles,tony,craig
i've also, been using the init script to restart sendmail which
i believe issues newaliases:
echo -n "Starting sendmail: "
/usr/bin/newaliases > /dev/null 2>&1
i tried running 'newaliases' alone and still nothing.
i am not sure if possibly the problem is involving the init script
or not. i was just curious to hear if anyone had run into this
exact problem.
thanks.
