I've run again this with the -d option and found the following with the old
server:

--------> system_aliases router <--------
local_part=emmanuel.stapf domain=eiffel.com
calling system_aliases router
rda_interpret (string): ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/aliases}}
search_open: lsearch "/etc/aliases"
search_find: file="/etc/aliases"
key="emmanuel.stapf" partial=-1
LRU list:
8/etc/aliases
End
internal_search_find: file="/etc/aliases"
type=lsearch key="emmanuel.stapf"
file lookup required for emmanuel.stapf
in /etc/aliases
lookup yielded: manus
expanded: manus
file is not a filter file
parse_forward_list: manus
extract item: manus
system_aliases router generated manus@???
errors_to=NULL transport=NULL
uid=unset gid=unset home=NULL
routed by system_aliases router
envelope to: emmanuel.stapf@???
transport: <none>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

and the following with the new server:
--------> system_aliases router <--------
local_part=emmanuel.stapf domain=eiffel.com
calling system_aliases router
rda_interpret (string): ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/aliases}}
search_open: lsearch "/etc/aliases"
search_find: file="/etc/aliases"
key="emmanuel.stapf" partial=-1 affix=NULL starflags=0
LRU list:
:/etc/aliases
End
internal_search_find: file="/etc/aliases"
type=lsearch key="emmanuel.stapf"
file lookup required for emmanuel.stapf
in /etc/aliases
lookup failed
expanded:
file is not a filter file
parse_forward_list:
system_aliases router declined for emmanuel.stapf@???

but when I look at /etc/aliases it is the same and it is the `internal_search'
which finds emmanuel.stapf, so what is it?

Thanks,
Manu
