I have an 'old' alias file in /etc/aliases (linked to /etc/mail/aliases) that seems to be working fine; I haven't changed it in years. Since that time, I have upgraded to postfix 2.5.1.

This morning, I added a new entry to the alias table, and ran newaliases without error. I also did a "postfix reload". But the alias is not being recognized; mail sent to the alias (from the localhost) goes to the dead.letter file.

I have the following entry in my main.cf:

alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases

Note: There is a "default" aliases file in /usr/local/etc/postfix/ which seems to have been installed with 2.5.1, but newaliases appears to be using the one in /etc/ (based on how postfix is routing mail). Is there any way to check which alias file is being used?
