If your conf-break is +, for example, and you set environment variables
QMAILINJECT=rm
QMAILSUSER=schwartz+dsn
then a typical message will have an envelope sender address of
schwartz+dsn-987654321.12345-recip=aol.com
which will automatically be controlled by ~schwartz/.qmail-dsn-default.
What's the problem?

I said nothing of the sort. If your conf-break is +, you might have a
mailing list called
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
with service addresses such as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
which would normally be handled by
~schwartz/.qmail-trolling-default
The + after schwartz has nothing to do with the dash later in the
address. What's the problem?
There is one situation where it helps for conf-break to be a dash,
namely when a list is run by an account of the same name:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
If conf-break is a dash, the angels-request address will automatically
be controlled by the angels user. Otherwise, to use that address, you'll
have to put an extra line into users/assign.
