Wher e did that come from? (It doesn't exist on my system). I don't know about you, but new aliases and postalias and postmap are tools that I run extremely rarely. I think the last made I made to aliases might have been as much as 10 years ago. I've changed virtual more frequently, but still rarely. postfix flush is nearly always a bad idea, and I can't imagine it's useful after a reload, or at least I can't think of a reason you'd want to do that; if you've reloaded, postfix will requeue the mail on its own. -- "If you make people think they're thinking, they'll love you; But if you really make them think, they'll hate you." - Don Marquis
