RE: [cobalt-developers] Email migration- issues with /etc/mail/aliases "No such user here" {Virus Engine Scanned}

["Adam Fleet" <afleet@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you Lim Pey Foong, for your help.

FYI for other newbies, I removed the line that read

@digerati.com.au       no:user No Such user here

from /etc/mail/virtusertable

but the alias were not accepted until I modified an alias of an unrelated
user- obviously the web admin screens call some routine that picks up the
change somehow.

Thanks again!

Adam.

check this out
/etc/mail/virtusertable

they should something like that:
@digerati.com.au       no:user No Such user here

remove this line and makemap hash virusertable < virusertable will do
