NAME
       newaliases - rebuild the data base for the mail aliases file


SYNOPSIS
       newaliases


DESCRIPTION
       Newaliases   rebuilds   the   random   access   data   base  for  the  mail  aliases  file
       /etc/mail/aliases.  It must be run each time this file is changed in order for the  change
       to take effect.

       Newaliases is identical to ``sendmail -bi''.

       The newaliases utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

       Notice:  do  not  use  makemap  to create the aliases data base, because newaliases puts a
       special token into the data base that is required by sendmail.


FILES
       /etc/mail/aliases   The mail aliases file


SEE ALSO
