Hi list:


I have a question about program execution using qmail and aliases files:

Can I use /etc/aliases file to execute a program using qmail?

A tipic entry on /etc/aliases for my system is:

erojas: "|/usr/bin/filter.pl 7507203"

this line is used to send a pager notification to my pager, and it works
OK on Sendmail, but what I am trying to do is to migrate to qmail and I
do not know how to handle this issue.

In qmail docs I have found that qmail does not allow this "insecure" way
to execute programs, but I did not found any documentation on how to set
a secure way to execute this kind of programs.


I would apreciate your help

Regards,

Eduardo Rojas
