There's another way...

Try using /var/qmail/users/mailnames (documented briefly in the man page
for qmail-pw2u).
Essentially, it's a lot of lines of the format:
sysaccount:mailalias1[:mailalias2][...]
We use it to set up the same types of aliases here. qmail-pw2u takes it
into account when it creates the output which you put into
/var/qmail/users/assign, which is used by qmail-newu to create the cdb file.
