Name
stab
Synopsis
The stab database-map
type is used internally by sendmail to load the
raw aliases(5) file into its internal symbol
table.[17] This is a fallback position that is taken if no database
form of aliasing is found.
The stab type should never be
used in configuration files.
[17] As such, it is somewhat misnamed. One might
reasonably expect a type named stab to provide
access to the symbol table, but alas, this is not so.
