First, I'll have to admit to not knowing much about these.  Granted the
change to a different path is probably the most difficult configuration
issue in the new version even though it does make sense.

A common practice I have seen has been to leave a symlink in /etc/ to the
aliases file in /etc/mail/.  Does this seem sensible?  Should it be done by
installworld or by the other MTA ports upon installation?
