That's not correct. qmail delivers to home directories by default; to get it to
deliver to /var/spool/mail you'd have to follow the special instructions in
INSTALL.vsm.
You'd need the symlinks only if you were using the default home directory
delivery but had MUAs or a POP daemon that only knew how to look in
/var/spool/mail.
