I'm having a strange problem at my site that I was hoping someone else had
seen. I'm using VM version 4.41 and whenever I mail something to a local
alias the alias doesn't get resolved and the mail is bounced back to me. 
A quick perusal through the code of sendmail.el indicates that 'sendmail'
is called with a few harmless options yet my aliases aren't expanded. As a
matter of fact, if I run 'sendmail -bv aliasname' they get expanded just
fine. Has anyone seen this behaviour with VM before?
