 ;  Sample alias file for Mercury.
;  Copright (c) 1993-96, David Harris, All Rights Reserved.
;
;  The format for this file is:
;
;      alias == real_address
;
;  Lines starting with ';', '#' or '*' are considered comments
;  and are ignored, as are blank lines. There may be trailing
;  and leading whitespace on entries - it is all stripped out
;  in the alias file. It is a limitation of this release of
;  Mercury that you cannot have an alias or real address which
;  contains '==' because no quoting mechanism is implemented.
;
;  Compile the file using MALIAS.EXE, and copy it to the place
;  you have specified in MERCURY.INI. You can update Mercury's
;  alias file while Mercury is running.
;
;  You can have an almost unlimited number of aliases, and you
;  may have them resolve to anything you wish. Aliases are
;  resolved before any other attempt at address resolution is
;  made, so it is perfectly legal to have a local-looking alias
;  resolve to an off-server address. Note, though, that aliases
;  work strictly on the ADDRESS - they are not affected by any
;  quoted or comment text which is attached to it. As an example
;  of the impact of this, the aliasing mechanism regards these
;  two addresses as identical:
;
;     "My what a funny day!" david@pmail.gen.nz
;     (Master of the Lightbulbs) <david@pmail.gen.nz> "Pop!"
;
;  Aliases may be applied recursively up to four levels deep -
;  that is, you may have aliases for aliases in this file.
;  (although it still eludes me why anyone would do this).
;
;  Neither aliases nor real addresses are case-sensitive, 
;  although case is preserved in real addresses.
