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,
