Hi,

I have problems some problems with smail and i am looking for help.
I installed smail (3.1.28) on our Network (NeXTs running NS 2.1). Everything  
works fine except one alias:

BeNG: "|/usr/server/catmail -L BENG -f"

This alias should pipe the mail to catmail.
Unfortunaly smail comes up with an the following error message:

director aliases: matched BeNG, aliased to "| /usr/server/catmail -L BENG -f"
write_log:no valid recipients were found for this message
write_log:"| /usr/server/catmail -L BENG -f" ... failed: (ERR_104) director  
aliases: security violation

Obviously there is something wrong with my configuration, but I don't  
understand what.

Any help is appreciated.

Matthias
