DESCRIPTION

Ali searches the named mail alias files for each of the given aliases.  It creates a list of addresses for those aliases, and writes that list on standard output.  If the ‘−list’ option is specified, each address appears on a separate line; otherwise, the addresses are separated by commas and printed on as few lines as possible. 
 
The ‘−user’ option directs ali to perform its processing in an inverted fashion: instead of listing the addresses that each given alias expands to, ali will list the aliases that expand to each given address.  If the ‘−normalize’ switch is given, ali will try to track down the official hostname of the address. 
 
Each alias is processed as described in mh−alias (5).  ^$HOME/.mh_profile~^The user profile ^/etc/passwd~^List of users ^/etc/group~^List of groups None mh−alias(5) ‘−alias /usr/new/lib/mh/MailAliases’ ‘−nolist’ ‘−nonormalize’ ‘−nouser’ None The ‘−user’ option with ‘−nonormalize’ is not entirely accurate, as it does not replace local nicknames for hosts with their official site names.
