I have set up Postgres on our server and under /var/qmail/alias i placed a
.qmail-postgres (the user account for postgreSQL is postgres), I then
forward all mail to postgres to root

.qmail-postgres contains
&root

all root mail is aliased to our two system administrators.

When I checked the alias by sending mail to postgres and checked 
/var/mail/mail.log I see the following entry:

Oct 23 13:19:09 tuwanda qmail: 972321549.021134 status: local 0/10 remote
0/20 
Oct 23 13:21:42 tuwanda qmail: 972321702.016694 starting delivery
1084: msg 231 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED]

13:21:42 tuwanda qmail: 972321702.016776 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20

1084: deferral: Unable_to_chdir_to_maildir._(#4.2.1)/ 

If I have aliased the postgres account why is it trying to change to the
postgres maildir (there is none since I don't want mail being delivered to
the postgres account.

If anyone could help me on this I would really appreciate it.
Please email me directly since I am not subscribed to the qmail mailing
list the volume of mail received is just too high for me.

Thanks very much,
Jen
