PRALIASES(8)

💌 PRALIASES(8) — system manager's manual, but make it cute

okay bestie, buckle up, because this one is short and sweet and lowkey iconic 💅

✨ NAME ✨

praliases — display system mail aliases

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

praliases [-C file] [-f file] [key ...]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so praliases shows you the current system aliases, one per line, and it does not care about any particular order — it's giving chaos, it's giving "no particular order", and honestly? we respect it 🙈

and listen — that special internal @:@ alias? if it's present, it will show up in the output. she's not shy. she makes herself known. periodt 👑

The options are as follows:

• -C file — read the specified sendmail configuration file instead of the default sendmail configuration file 🎀
• -f file — read the specified file instead of the configured sendmail system aliases file(s) ✨

and here's the tea ☕ — if you pass one or more key arguments on the command line, then only the entries that match those keys get displayed. like a lil vibe check for your aliases. if it doesn't match, it's not coming to the party 🫶

heads up bestie: praliases exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. so zero = slay, bigger than zero = something went wrong 😭

🎀 FILES 🎀

• /etc/mail/sendmail.cf — the default sendmail configuration file 🌈

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

• mailq(1)
• sendmail(8)
