NEWALIASES(8) System Manager's Manual NEWALIASES(8)

NAME

newaliases - update /etc/aliases database

SYNOPSIS

newaliases

DESCRIPTION

This is a link to the ssmtp binary. It invokes /usr/sbin/sendmail with the -bi option. It is provided for compatibility with the sendmail program.

In this case it does absolutely nothing since sSMTP does not support /etc/aliases and is just there to avoid programs returning error messages.
