I thought I'd repost this, in case the original (or any replies) got lost
in the bitstream. The gist if my question is: when would I need to use
assign instead of an alias?

Subject: Usage of /var/qmail/users/assign
I'm not 100% sure I understand the difference in intended usage between
setting up a ~/alias/.qmail-whatever file and setting up a virtual user in
/var/qmail/users/assign. As far as I can tell, the former uses forwarding,
whereas the latter is acting like a true alias.
Am I understanding this correctly? If so, what are the practical
implications? They seem almost interchangeable to me.
