When I do it I get;

[root@qube /etc]# newaliases
/etc/aliases: 87 aliases, longest 103 bytes, 1914 bytes total
/etc/aliases.majordomo: 78 aliases, longest 88 bytes, 3825 bytes total
[root@qube /etc]#

I didn't spell it out but before editing any config file I always make a
backup (e.g cp aliases aliases.bck).  Then if something bad happens I can go
back one step.

I don't suppose you can try to run newaliases with your original aliases
file?

I'm suggesting that you may have made an error when you edited /etc/aliases.

Cheers,  Malcolm
