Smail troubles



Hi,

	I'm trying to get aliases with smail. Even the smailconfig
generated file /etc/aliases don't fit the mkaliases likes.
	After renaming /etc/aliases, I had tried:
	# mksort /etc/aliases.tmp | mkline > /etc/aliases 
	# mkaliases
and the result is:
/usr/sbin/mkaliases: unknown file type, , for /etc/aliases
	What is going wrong here? Some help, please.
	
PS.: the smailconfig(5) pointed in /etc/aliases doesn't exists. I couldn't
find any information on the file format, except the original path to 
the author's source location, even in the man pages. Every time one
run smailconfig, it remove the /etc/aliases file. This is below the
Debian Quality Software I would like to find in smail. 

	Thanks,
