I believe that the reserved email addresses are stored in two files:
/etc/aliases or /etc/mail/aliases and /etc/virtusertable or /etc/mail/virtusertable (depending on
your product.  Usually, reserved email addresses are admin, root, sys....etc...

Actually, by modifying /etc/aliases, I believe you can set your own aliases...but this entails a
bending of the warrenty.

This is more of a limitation of Linux and Sendmail....so I don't figure Sun will be tackling the
issue anytime soon.  It would be nice however, for Sun to have some documentation on the subject.

Hope its helped
