Dear Postfix Experts,

Is there a way to get a pipe going to newaliases / sendmail -I / postalias?

I felt a strong need to have end of line comment characters in /etc/aliases ;-). So my first shot at that was:
   sed 's/#.*$//' aliases | newalises

Which failed spectacularly. And yes, I know that # is legal in email addresses, I accept the tradoff to get nice neat comments,
grepable by alias:

   # The fumble section of of our aliases
   #
   foo: fum              # requested by fumble on 20090101
   fiddle: fie,fie,foo   # per ticket #AZ-12313
   living: "danger#...@ly.com"   # Yeah, right
