Please see the FAQ at
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnats/doc/faq/gnats-faq_3.html#SEC12
In short: "initialize" the new database, and create a separate
set of mail aliases.
The FAQ forgets to mention that you must enter the new mail
address in new-db-dir/gnats-adm/config (GNATS_ADDR=...). I'll
update this.

That's probably because you use the mail aliases of the old
database.

I am confused by this.
Are you sure the entry in gnats-db.conf points to the right
directory? Does the new directory contain gnats-adm,
gnats-queue, and the sub-directories for the categories?
Does everything in the new db directory belong to the gnats user
(and is readable and writeable by it)?

It is still beta (officially), but seems to be pretty usable.

I am running 3.111, with multiple databases. So I can confirm
that it works, even with pre-4.0. :-)

Internationalization is on the agenda only for post-4.0, sorry.
