Hi!

I just upgraded to sendmail 8.9.0 on my Alphastation 255 and suddenly
aliases wont work. Neither my old aliases-file nor the newer one provided
with the 8.9.0-tarball will work. Instead I get complaints about "cannot
alias non-local-users" in spite of users being exactly that. I have tried
adding to the local.users-file but no luck..

Anyone who has experienced this particular problem? I tried adding dummy
accounts to solve this but I can't get .forward to work either. I am using
procmail as local mailer to sort the mail I can't imagine that being the
causing considering sendmail complains already at startup about not being
able to alias names..
