I would prefer
root: :include: /etc/mail/rootalias
or maybe
root: :include: /etc/sysconfig/rootalias
(and things like a silent skip if that alias is already defined) but
we are arguing here about details of an implementation.
I think that there is a general agreement that something of that
sort would be highly desirable. Should there be a bugzilla RFE for
that?
