Sendmail not sending mail to my alias

Hello,
I have small issue with sendmail not sending emails to my mailing list.

When I run
Code:
mail rayfinkle@example.com
the email sends fine to my mailbox on our mail server; however, when I run
Code:
mail Linux_Alerts@example.com
the message is never received.

Can someone please assist?

Thank you in advance,

Ray

I solved my own issue. I had to enable unauthenticated users to send mail to this alias within MS exchange. The root user was not able to send mail to this alias because of that setting.

Now I get my logwatch reports!
