Description Adam Huffman 2006-04-24 16:48:00 UTC
Description of problem:
Several of the default aliases in /etc/aliases can cause mail to be delivered
locally instead of to the correct external address.  For instance, if the
external address begins with 'support' or 'sales'.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.5.49-1

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try sending a mail to an address of the form 'support@...'
2. 
3.
  
Actual results:
Mail is delivered locally

Expected results:
Mail should be delivered to the external address

Comment 1 Florian La Roche 2007-03-09 07:17:59 UTC
This depends on the mail setup and /etc/aliases should stay as it currently is.

regards,

Florian La Roche
