[Cialug] Postfix redux

Last week the problem with Gmail rejecting "Root" as a sender email
addressk popped up, .. and I fixed the reject issue by forcing the
appending of "host.domain.com":

# Attempt to satisfy new gmail restrictions
myorigin = $myhostname
append_at_myorigin = yes

This worked for test emails, .. but it also created a new issue - the
recipient email apparently gets rewritten before aliases is checked, so
"root" is never mapped to the two emails in /etc/aliases (the daily cron
email now get send TO root at host.domain.com and disappear).

I see two possibilitiess:

1) Is there a way to force aliases to be parsed *before*
append_at_myorigin?

2) If not, do any of the canonical mapping options allow fo a list of
emails (i.e. we need two different emails substituded for the recipient)?

Doesn't seen to be an answer for either of these in "Postfix Address
Rewriting".

	TIA!!!!
