Hi... help me please

Previously, my server could send the email from deamon to out side but now it could not. I tried to use command "mailq -v", it show error as below that "alias database unavailable". Does anyone help me, what should I fix?

Wild guess:

See if /etc/aliases is missing:

Code:

# ls -l /etc/aliases
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     system           17 05 Jun 2008  /etc/aliases -> /etc/mail/aliases

Also, try running this command with "truss" to see if you can spot any failures:

Code:

$ truss mailq -v
