postfix (and just about all MTAs) store aliases in /etc/aliases . exim reads
the file directly, while sendmail turns that file into some sort of database
and reads that. First, edit /etc/aliases and make sure it's correct. You
use "newaliases" to regenerate that database from the plaintext file, so do
that if you haven't done it. HTH,
