Thank you very much Martin and Dave.. 
Turns out that I need $EXT2 for forwarding, and the name of my alias
files was incorrect as well, should have been .qmail-gpsmac-default for
just .qmail-gpsmac (I presume, I just used the -default)

One other thing. I want to create a quick perl script to print out all
the arguments and enviroment valiables that are appearent when
qmail-send sends the email. This would help me better understand qmail.

I've created a test email account: [EMAIL PROTECTED], but when I send my
email to there, it gets lost, and nothing comes out of my script. Here's
my .qmail-test file:

|preline /home/guice/tmp/test.pl

test.pl contains:
#!/usr/bin/perl

open (FLE, ">file.text");
foreach $key (keys  %ENV )
{   print FLE "$key\t$ENV{$key}\n";  }
foreach (@ARGV)
{  print FLE $_ . "\n";  }
close (FLE);
exit (0);

Nothing gets sent to file.text... Any ideas? Or does anybody already
have a script that will do this for me that I can install. I just want
something simple, just enough so I can see everything avaliable when
qmail-send is invoked.

Thnx again.. 

Philip

BTW: tmp is set to 777 and test.pl is set to 755.
