Hello Will,
Indeed, newaliases runs every few minutes as part of the alias gathering routines. In fact, I tested that part, and as far as the "local" server was concerned, sendmail -bv email@domain.com was set to route correctly. The problem I got was that any server connecting to the machine to send mail to the domain on the recently added IP would be rejected.
Thanks for pondering.
