Comment 8 for bug 623520

I know I'm not the only person getting this issue. It was said the issue is that the /etc/aliases file needs to point to a valid user on the system other that root. This I fix, but dovecot doesn't seem to listen to this even after bouncing both postfix and dovecot.

The error below will show up in the log erratically over the day sometime 20 time in just a few minutes then not again for almost a day. I assume there is an algorithm that determines when to check.
