If you know how to make changes to virtusertable the only problems
you're going to run into is that the Raq will overwrite them again
later.
If you don't know how to make changes to virtusertable the worst problem
you can run into is you'll misdirect email, or worse yet, cause sendmail
to stop working. While that's bad, it's probably not a security issue.
(You can certainly create security issues making changes to the aliases
file, though.)
