I'm curious.  I just installed sendmail 5.61, and rewrote my
sendmail.cf file.  All of a sudden, my alias file broke with "cannot
alias non-local names".

I look in the code and discover that it passes the alias through
parseaddr(), which causes it to be rewritten by rulesets 3 and 0.
Why?  I just discovered that my new configuration file won't let
aliases have periods in them.  I guess it's back to square one.
