Woops - stock newlist doesn't add to /etc/aliases automatically... The alias command I suggested won't help.

Unless you have some other automation wrapped around the call to newlist - you could easily create an alias: alias newlist='<your path to mailman>/bin/newlist;/usr/bin/newaliases' This limits your command line options - but will save you a couple keystrokes. You could also schedule a call to newaliases via cron - but that seems like overkill.

But I am missing something here. I cannot get my mailman to update the aliases database. I check the setting in the manual. I am running mailman with postifx. I have looked at the newlist --help and I just cannot get my alias db to update. I hate to have to do this manually. Any guidance would be great.
