I'm fairly sure that this complaint pops up when an alias file is on a
different device than /etc. When I set things up, I symlinked my majordomo
aliases file to /etc. newaliases sticks the database in /etc where it
belongs, but the original aliases file's somewhere else that majordomo owns
and my list creation scripts can access.
