Which have to be specified in the driver for /etc/aliases in the
config file.

You have an alias for "user" as "driver = pipe user = $nobody group = \
$nogroup command = \"|/usr/sbin/list user\""
Which isn't a valid address, oddly enough.
RTFM and put the user/group specifications in the config file where you
put configurations, not in the alis file, where you put aliases.
