[comp.sys.next] mail aliases

I'm trying to set up aliases using /etc/aliases. When I run newaliases
I get:
/etc/sendmail/aliases: line xx: cannot alias non-local names
a bunch of times. Anybody got a clue as to whats wrong? Also there are
aliases in netinfo, does sendmail use these. I notice that sendmail complains
into the syslog when the /etc/sendmail alias dbm files are not set up
so I assume that sendmail uses those files and not netinfo. Anybody know about
this? Thanks,
