Check the compile flags for the location of the alias file. If in doubt,
try a link from /etc/alias to the real one. I have also had to manually
run postalias after a change to the alias file. New releases
(redhat/fedora mainly) will automatically rebuild the alias db file if
alias has changed when the service is restarted.
