Boy, I hate to sound ignorant - how do you run newaliases by hand? Using 
makemap? (like recreating the virtusertable db - makemap hash 
/etc/mail/virtusertable < sourcefile). 

Problem is - makemap is barfing. I'm getting errors whenever I try it - 
whatever map type (hash or dbm) that I try. 

Oh, I'm using package 8.11.3+8.12.0.Beta7-5 - the most recent from the 
testing tree. (well, at least the one that was most recent as of last night)
