No, you need to run 'newaliases' or 'sendmail -bi' - the running sendmail process does *NOT* need to be restarted. In fact, I see a bug fix listed for Sendmail 8.6 back in 1993 having to do with making the running sendmail properly wait for a 'newaliases' to finish running before looking up an alias. I think even Sendmail 5.6x from the early 80's didn't require restarting sendmail when aliases were changed. -- Valdis Kletnieks Operating Systems Analyst Virginia Tech
