System name:		E40-342G-1
Type and version:	RTPC-ROMPC 7.1H
Display type:		plx

What were you trying to do?
	Create an alias

What's wrong:
	According to the manual...
		Each line of the alias file has the format:
          alias : address-group
	It lies: If you put a space between the alias name and the colon
	delimiter, mh barfs - without telling you the reason (apart from
	saying there is an error in the alias)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	mh-alias(6)
