-# NAME
-# aliases - Postfix local alias database format
-#
-# SYNOPSIS
-# newaliases
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-# The aliases(5) table provides a system-wide mechanism to
-# redirect mail for local recipients. The redirections are
-# processed by the Postfix local(8) delivery agent.
-#
-# Normally, the aliases(5) table is specified as a text file
-# that serves as input to the postalias(1) command. The
-# result, an indexed file in dbm or db format, is used for
-# fast lookup by the mail system. Execute the command
-# newaliases in order to rebuild the indexed file after
-# changing the Postfix alias database.
-#
-# The input and output file formats are expected to be com-
-# patible with Sendmail version 8, and are expected to be
-# suitable for the use as NIS maps.
-#
-# Users can control delivery of their own mail by setting up
-# .forward files in their home directory. Lines in per-user
-# .forward files have the same syntax as the right-hand side
-# of aliases(5) entries.
-#
-# The format of the alias database input file is as follows:
-#
-# o An alias definition has the form
-#
-# name: value1, value2, ...
-#
-# o Empty lines and whitespace-only lines are ignored,
-# as are lines whose first non-whitespace character
-# is a `#'.
-#
-# o A logical line starts with non-whitespace text. A
-# line that starts with whitespace continues a logi-
-# cal line.
-#
-# The name is a local address (no domain part). Use double
-# quotes when the name contains any special characters such
-# as whitespace, `#', `:', or `@'. The name is folded to
-# lowercase, in order to make database lookups case insensi-
-# tive.
-#
-# In addition, when an alias exists for owner-name, delivery
-# diagnostics are directed to that address, instead of to
-# the originator. This is typically used to direct delivery
-# errors to the owner of a mailing list, who is in a better
-# position to deal with mailing list delivery problems than
-# the originator of the undelivered mail.
-#
-# The value contains one or more of the following:
-#
-# address
-# Mail is forwarded to address, which is compatible
-# with the RFC 822 standard.
-#
-# /file/name
-# Mail is appended to /file/name. See local(8) for
-# details of delivery to file. Delivery is not lim-
-# ited to regular files. For example, to dispose of
-# unwanted mail, deflect it to /dev/null.
-#
-# |command
-# Mail is piped into command. Commands that contain
-# special characters, such as whitespace, should be
-# enclosed between double quotes. See local(8) for
-# details of delivery to command.
-#
-# When the command fails, a limited amount of command
-# output is mailed back to the sender. The file
-# /usr/include/sysexits.h defines the expected exit
-# status codes. For example, use |"exit 67" to simu-
-# late a "user unknown" error, and |"exit 0" to
-# implement an expensive black hole.
-#
-# :include:/file/name
-# Mail is sent to the destinations listed in the
-# named file. Lines in :include: files have the same
-# syntax as the right-hand side of alias entries.
-#
-# A destination can be any destination that is
-# described in this manual page. However, delivery to
-# "|command" and /file/name is disallowed by default.
-# To enable, edit the allow_mail_to_commands and
-# allow_mail_to_files configuration parameters.
-#
-# ADDRESS EXTENSION
-# When alias database search fails, and the recipient local-
-# part contains the optional recipient delimiter (e.g.,
-# user+foo), the search is repeated for the unextended
-# address (e.g., user).
-#
-# The propagate_unmatched_extensions parameter controls
-# whether an unmatched address extension (+foo) is propa-
-# gated to the result of table lookup.
-#
-# SECURITY
-# The local(8) delivery agent disallows regular expression
-# substitution of $1 etc. in alias_maps, because that would
-# open a security hole.
-#
-# The local(8) delivery agent will silently ignore requests
-# to use the proxymap(8) server within alias_maps. Instead
-# it will open the table directly. Before Postfix version
-# 2.2, the local(8) delivery agent will terminate with a
-# fatal error.
-#
-# CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
-# The following main.cf parameters are especially relevant.
-# The text below provides only a parameter summary. See
-# postconf(5) for more details including examples.
-#
-# alias_database
-# List of alias databases that are updated by the
-# newaliases(1) command.
-#
-# alias_maps
-# List of alias databases queried by the local(8)
-# delivery agent.
-#
-# allow_mail_to_commands
-# Restrict the usage of mail delivery to external
-# command.
-#
-# allow_mail_to_files
-# Restrict the usage of mail delivery to external
-# file.
-#
-# expand_owner_alias
-# When delivering to an alias that has an owner- com-
-# panion alias, set the envelope sender address to
-# the right-hand side of the owner alias, instead
-# using of the left-hand side address.
-#
-# propagate_unmatched_extensions
-# A list of address rewriting or forwarding mecha-
-# nisms that propagate an address extension from the
-# original address to the result. Specify zero or
-# more of canonical, virtual, alias, forward,
-# include, or generic.
-#
-# owner_request_special
-# Give special treatment to owner-listname and list-
-# name-request addresses.
-#
-# recipient_delimiter
-# Delimiter that separates recipients from address
-# extensions.
