In trying to figure out why my vacation program wasn't working
(qmailDotMode needs to be set to ldaponly, and not both like I had) I
changed by deliveryMode around to see if that would fix it.

After I found the solution I changed deliveryMode to "normal" as per the
somewhat missleading doc:
  http://www.nrg4u.com/qmail/QLDAPINSTALL
    "- (normal): put message into maildir/mbox, plus forward
     and program delivery"
when I should of just deleted it.  That's my fault.

However instead of bouncing the email back to the sender, would it be
better to re-queue the email for a later delivery attempt?  Perhaps also
kick off an email to the postmaster alerting him of this problem.  Right
now people immediately get a qmail error message when I could of easily
fixed it if I knew about it.

I could of been tailing the logs for "failure" but things like not being
able to find hostnames show up as well.

Is there an HTML-ized version of the above documentation?  If not, is
there a desire for one?  I should give back to the community for this
great software.  Let me know (off list and I'll summerize) of any
concerns or comments about this and I'll work on it.
