I'm trying to install a mail server with postfix, and follow the instructs from document "Virtual Mailhosting System with Postfix Guide". After config the postfix, I need to run /usr/bin/newaliases to create aliases.db, but I can not find the newaliases command. After I link aliases command to sendmail, everything works well. I think emerge forget to link newaliases to sendmail command.
we need the following. 1. emerge info 2. emerge postfix -vp 3. equery f postfix | grep newaliases
