newaliases - rebuild the data base for the mail aliases file
newaliases
newaliases rebuilds the random access data base for the mail aliases file
/etc/mail/aliases. It must be run each time this file is changed in order
for the change to take effect.
newaliases is identical to "sendmail -bi".
Notice: do not use makemap(8) to create the aliases data base, because
newaliases puts a special token into the data base that is required by
sendmail(8).

The newaliases utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
