NAME

ali − list mail aliases

SYNOPSIS

ali [−alias aliasfile] [−list] [−nolist] [−normalize]
[−nonormalize] [−user] [−nouser] [aliases ...]
[−version] [−help]

DESCRIPTION

Ali searches the named mail alias files for each of the given aliases. It creates a list of addresses for those aliases, and writes that list on standard output. If no arguments are given, ali outputs all alias entries.

By default, when an aliases expands to multiple addresses, the addresses are separated by commas and printed on as few lines as possible. If the ’−list’ option is specified, then when an address expands to multiple addresses, each address will appear on a separate line.

The switch ’−user’ directs ali to perform its processing in an inverted fashion: instead of listing the addresses that each given alias expands to, ali will list the aliases that expand to each given address. If the ’−normalize’ switch is given, ali will try to track down the official hostname of the address.

The files specified by the profile entry “Aliasfile:” and any additional alias files given by the ’−alias aliasfile’ switch will be read. Each alias is processed as described in mh−alias (5).

FILES

$HOME/.mh_profile The user profile
/etc/passwd List of users
/etc/group List of groups

PROFILE COMPONENTS

’−nolist’

BUGS

The ’−user’ option with ’−nonormalize’ is not entirely accurate, as it does not replace local nicknames for hosts with their official site names.
