OK guys - I have become the new administrator of our email server because well, I am the only one who knows Linux. The email server is RHEL4 ES running Postfix, Dovecott, Amavis, Spamassisin, & ClamAV.

My question is that when I send an email to it_group@... it is sent to 3 specific people. I want to know who and how that it_group is being resoved to those 3 email addresses. I checked under /etc/postfix/aliases and in that file I see the alias in question but when I modify it and add my gmail for testing and save it, I never get the email at my gmail but the 3 people still get the email. What am I missing? Is there another file? I ran the command "postfix reload" after I made the change but not sure if that was even needed. Anyone can please help me understand this I would greatly appreciate it! I am so lost!
