I do not read these mailing groups so:

	- I am not sure this is the correct place to post. If not please

We are trying to set up a mail server on an SCO ODT unix box, and would like
to know how to set up an alias equivilant to the following sendmail alias.

csni-mail-server: "|/home/mars/vaughan/KISS/mail.server csni-mail-server /home/mars/vaughan/KISS/mail.service.program"

For any of you not familiar with sendmail aliases, this alias takes mail for
the pseudo-user csni-mail-server, and pipes the text of the mail to
the given command line.

Is there any way of doing this with MMDF without creating a user, and using
the pipe command in the .mailrc file.
