    After dozens of IMGate/postfix successful installs on FreeBSD and Linx, Iīm
    doing my first on Mandrake, and I gotta mail loop:

    Sep 5 08:59:23 mx1 postfix/smtp[11815]: 5C291154:
    to=<postmasterMX1.VEI.net>, relay=mx1.vei.net[64.89.101.37], delay=4,
    status=bounced (mail for mx1.vei.net loops back to myself)

    but postmaster is aliased to root and root is aliased to a mailbox on
    another machine.

    postalias -q postmaster /etc/aliases

    gives root

    postalias -q root /etc/aliases

    gives adminotherhost

    main.cf:

    alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
    alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/etc/postfix/aliases

    So I stuck a -v on smtp in master.cf, it certainly locates the files in
    main.cf, but I canīt see why postfix canīt resolve the alias
    postmasterMX1.VEI.net to the canonical adminotherhost.
