You can use include in /etc/aliases file.
1. Create a group ( eg. admin )
2. Add user to the group using usermod or GUI Tools ( eg. usermod -G admin
user1 )
3. Create an alias entry with include ( Include:/file in /etc/aliases )
4. Create IncludeFile and add the users you want to this file
5. Set permission on include file or directory to group but not to every
one. ( Remove read permission from everyone )
eg. chown root.GroupName IncludeFileName.
chmod 640 GroupName IncludeFileName
6. Test result
