ok, i got this all setup right, but i can't get anything to work...  it
gives me the following error when attempting to run sendmail:

hash map "Alias0": unsafe map file /etc/aliases: No such file or directory
kaufmjes... Recipient names must be specified

what does this mean?  also, is anyone using balsa?  i would like to use it
for e-mail now, but i need someone to pretty much step me thru the mail
setup, since i don't understand how it works in linux...
