- A user of the system that I am postmaster for has complained to me that he
- is not notified when mail comes in addressed to his alias. Specifically,
- when mail comes in addressed to luser@site (the actual name) the user is
- biffed, but when mail comes in addressed to userl@site, he is not. The
- entry in the aliases file reads
-
- userl:luser

- Please respond to this query to 'cstern@novus.com,' as I am using this account
- as a guest.
