David,
Once an Alias becomes a 'group' (more than 4 or 5 email addresses), then the
SMTP setting 'Allow remote mail to local group' comes into play. If you
enable that checkbox, stop/start the SMTP service, then IMail will allow the
email to enter the system. This is NOT something new in 6.0x!! Has been
around since at least V3.0x.
