Bug Description
We have so many lists, that rebuilding the aliases-file takes
more 10 to 20 mintues. -Very long.
genaliases calls postupdate after every list, so that aliases.db
ist empty at the beginning and grows from list to list.
In this time my MTA Postfix bounces messages, because he
isn`t able to find proper aliases for some lists, because
genaliases has thrown everything away.
It would be MUCH better, if genaliases would call postupdate
after finishing ALL the lists. That would save a lot of time and
this would resolve the problem, that the MTA has to be
stopped when genaliases is started, because aliases.db
contains all the lists just untill genaliases has finished his job
and aliases is totally rebuild.
