Hello list,

I'm into a slight struggle with my mail servers. They are satellite
systems (no local mail, everything goes to a smarthost). I figured out
that by changing the mailname to generaldomain.com instead of
themachineshostname.generaldomain.com, all users' mail get delivered
to u...@generaldomain.com (I create users with usernames that exist as
a mail alias/address in that domain).
BUT
this breaks the aliases file. "special" or system users, like root,
are not rewritten to m...@generaldomain.com, they are smarthosted with
their original user id -->  r...@generaldomain.com ...

Probably there is a better and cleaner way to reroute local users (not
individually, please) than to forge /etc/mailname?
