Cool.

You'd want to open aliases.db to get useful performance, I think.  Is
that pathname something a milter can ask sendmail about?  Even better
would be to get sendmail to expand the alias before the milter gets it,
but I don't know if that's possible.

It's not something you can coax out of sendmail, but here's what you COULD do. Every version of sendmail that supports milter, by default, uses /etc/mail/aliases.db ... if the admin wants the aliases.db to be elsewhere, it could always be a command line argument. :-)

That would make the milter very much more useful (IMHO).
