Upon further inspection, they are identical...  now.  I'm guessing
they weren't before.  Because, now when I run newaliases, I get:
$ sudo newaliases
WARNING: local host name (montgoss-server) is not qualified; see
cf/README: WHO AM I?
/etc/mail/aliases: line 28: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 29: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 30: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 31: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 32: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 33: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 34: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 35: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 36: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: line 37: missing colon
/etc/mail/aliases: 21 aliases, longest 52 bytes, 1218 bytes total

Seems like my "listinquestion at montgoss.com     listinquestion" lines
are not being parsed.  Are those supposed to go in the aliases file?
I'm thinking no.  So, where should they be?
