[rancid] issues with mail and aliases

[Anderson, Charles R]

After editing /etc/aliases, you must run "newaliases".

I maintain the Centos 7 EPEL package for rancid.  It is updated to 3.9--you should get the update in the next update batch (whenever that happens I'm not sure), or you can get it now from epel-testing.
