You said you read LWQ right? I searched it for the string and found
``sbin'' in several places. You should read section 2.8.2.1 (titled
``The qmail script'', in case the document gets rearranged and someone
is reading this message in the archive) very carefully.

man 5 qmail-control

ln -s mail/aliases /etc/aliases
