Use localaddr rule set 5 after local aliasing V8.7 and later
Prior to V8.7 sendmail, only the
local delivery
agent could cause the localaddr rule set 5 to be called
(The localaddr Rule Set 5 on
page 700). The localaddr rule set 5 is called after
aliasing and before forwarding, and can be used to
select a new delivery agent. Beginning with V8.7,
any delivery agent with the F=A delivery agent flag set (F=A on page 767) can cause
an address to be looked up in the
aliases(5) file. Therefore,
any delivery agent that has the F=A and F=5 delivery agent flags
set will cause the localaddr rule set 5 to be called as
though the agent were the local delivery agent.
In configuration files prior to version 6 (The V Configuration Command on page
580), this delivery agent flag is automatically set
for the local
delivery agent. Note that addresses that (perhaps
artificially) begin with an @ character cause the localaddr rule set 5 to
be skipped (The localaddr Rule Set 5 on page 700).
