Do not know how to use linux newaliases command text mode conversion? In fact, it is not difficult to solve this problem. Let the editor take you to learn how to solve it. I hope you will gain a lot after reading this article.

The Linux newaliases command uses a file in / etc/aliases to convert the user name. When sendmail receives a letter to xxx, it sends it to another user based on the contents of the aliases file. This feature can create a user who is effective only within the mail system. For example, mailinglist uses this feature. In mailinglist, we might create a mailinglist called redlinux@link.ece.uci.edu, but there is actually no user named redlinux. The content of the actual aliases file is to send all the messages to the user to the mailing list processor for delivery.

/ etc/aliases is a text-mode file, sendmail requires a binary format of / etc/aliases.db. The function of newaliases is to convert / etc/aliases into a database that sendmail can understand.
