No, that didn't help. Still get femail problem and referring an alias
root: chris002 also didn't help.
I did find a vmail alias,which I commented out.
newaliases rcctl stop smtpd rcctl start smtpd also to be sure.

I am not running spamd yet, so no error there.

I'm going to run dovecot, but I need to figure this problem out first.
