The contents after this creation are as follows:

$ makemap -vu hash genericstable.db
root:   Ephaeton@gmx.net
phaeton:        Ephaeton@gmx.net

Sendmail doesn't like that.

The contents after this creation are as follows:

$ makemap -vu hash genericstable.db
root    Ephaeton@gmx.net
@       @
phaeton Ephaeton@gmx.net
$

Sendmail likes this very much :p
