I just converted a sendmail box to qmail and used fastforward to make use
of the /etc/aliases table.  It turns out that there was an alias that read
simply:

accounts: accounts

I don't know why it was there and I didn't catch it during the conversion.
However, fastforward doesn't seem to be as tolerant of such things.  Every
delivery to that address is listed in the log as being a successful
delivery but they never actually arrived in the mailbox.  Once I removed
the alias, it worked fine.  Any idea what happened to the phantom
messages?
