The /etc/aliases file has a lot of aliases in it that are set there by default. Are all of them necessary? In particular, I don't want to erase any of the aliases that are used by various programs on the server. I've looked on the net for a summary of these aliases, but to no avail Can someone let me know where I can find this or perhaps enlighten me on which aliases are necessary for the system?
Thanks! Corey
It depends what you have installed. a lot would be for RFC-Compliancy, i.e. webmaster/postmaster etc..
Out of interest, is there any reason you wish to remove some? ... I've never found a reason to reduce/start playing with alias' file, other than adding new ones...
