If your system gets very busy, and has a cap on the number of
simultaneous sendmail processes allowed, then if the new sendmail
process being started here takes your system over this cap the
attempted redirect will fail, and the message will bounce.

Good point. It may have less of an overall impact on the system's
performance if you use the "owner-" method where feasible.
Example: myalias: newaddress(_at_)example(_dot_)com owner-myalias:
postmaster(_at_)myself(_dot_)com
In this example- Sendmail notices the "owner-" alias, and when
sending to "myalias" will rewrite the sender address so that bounces
go to postmaster(_at_)myself(_dot_)com
Why is this sort of thing so hard to find out about?! That is fantastic,
and does exactly what I want for an intermediate
non-sender-specific-rewriting solution. Many thanks!
