I must have missed the original post, but I suspect the problem is that
if you specify the bsearch method, the "newaliases" script wants to
produce the sorted list in a file called aliases.sort, but you may
still be trying to search the file named "aliases".  If your alias
file is not large, it may not be worth changing back anyway.
In general, the way to see what is going on with smail 3 is to use
something like "smail -v200 -N address" and note the step that
fails where you expect it to succeed.
