I documented upasname recently, around the same
time that I broke the mail man page into several ones.
The new versions are out on sources.  'man marshal' is
the relevant page.

Fromfiles went in during one of our many splits, when
Lucent was in the midst of splitting from AT&T, around
'96 to get the right return address for people.  Looking
around, I don't see anything execing aliasmail -f
so I don't think its used by anything anymore.  I'll
look harder, I may be wrong.
