netters,
we just upgraded our suns from 4.0.3 to 4.1.1. now, whenever i send
mail (using emacs rmail) to an alias in fileserver:/etc/aliases
(NAME_2 aliased to NAME, for example) that is not of the form:
NAME:NAME@fileserver
i get a (mail) message back telling me:
----- Transcript of session follows ----
550 NAME_2... User unknown
550 Postmaster... User unknown
but the message gets delivered! however, if i send a message
explicitly to NAME_2@fileserver, the mail gets delivered silently.
this was under emacs 18.55. i installed emacs 18.57 and the problem
persists. we're running yellow pages here.
can anyone tell me what's wrong?
thank you,
eric de mund
