Just been thinking about this one again (see recent thread). I'm not
really happy about making Exim into a no-op if given the -bi option.
I've just checked what smail does; it rebuilds the default alias file by
calling "mkaliases" from its own binary directory. However, Exim doesn't
have such a thing at the moment. I suppose I could create "mkaliases" to
contain
#!/bin/sh
BIN_DIRECTORY/exim_dbmbuild /etc/aliases /etc/aliases
which would work on systems that are using the ndbm interface, but not
for those that are using the native DB interface.
My feeling at the moment is to do nothing. Views? Suggestions?
