Oggetto: [Exim] local delivery problem
Hi, I have just setup exim 4.2 on redhat 9, and i'm having problems with
simple local deliveries.

the error I'm getting is "message: failed to expand
"${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{{/etc/aliases}}": failed to open {/etc/aliases
for linear search: No such file or directory"

seems it cannot find /etc/aliases but its there, here is output from:

exim -d -bt postmaster
