*Very* nice.

The reason I asked for the aliases example is that I migrated from a 
exim3/old_mailman to exim4/new_mailman system and had to take everything 
with me.

Thus I was completely at odds what should be put into the aliases file and 
I wasn't able to steer google in the right direction either.

If you'd add the example you sent me to the README then that would be very 
helpful.

Could you send me the new README. If you don't mind I'll look at it and 
criticise/improve it?

Thanks again,
