Thanks Marc, I have looked at this section quickly and also have another
quick question.

What are the differences between these two lines?

data = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch*{/etc/mail/aliases}}
data = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/mail/aliases}}

The line with the * in it will process wildcards in an aliases file. Is
the same as changing lsearch to wildlsearch?
