RD> Thank you for your replies. I am in the process of migrating from Linux and setting up my first FreeBSD box, so I am unfamiliar with FreeBSD, but I do know qmail well. Qmail normally logs to its own multilog, (far superior with busy servers), when and if you installed daemontools... For a good working knowledge of qmail, visit www.lifewithqmail.org You also should have a local user on that box to handle all the dot-qmail files and aliases. Mail forwarding is accomplished from the .qmail files.

Normally, your /var/qmail/alias/ dir contains your aliases, e.g. .qmail-root, .qmail-abuse, .qmail-postmaster, .qmail-hostmaster, etc.. these files contain just the name of the of the user that controls the .qmail files.. Example... ralph would be in the .qmail-root file. Then you can put in as many .qmail files in your home dir for what you wish... example, your main .qmail file would contain [EMAIL PROTECTED] (don't need the &, see man dot-qmail).. Just some thoughts. I suppose it works your way, but you are limited on what you can do using that method. -- Best regards, Gary _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
