Hello and sorry for the delay, life just happens sometimes :)

Applied, compiled, tested. It  works, with two small issues:

1. If /etc/aliases exists, it should be loaded by default, without
needing to use --aliases=/etc/aliases, or have a line in the config
file for it.

2. A line like: "postmaster: root" is not accepted, but I believe it
should be, and aliases should be solved recurrently (I also have a
"root: ovidiu@...231..." line in there). Any thoughts?

Other than that, it seems to work great! :)
