I installed qmail, daemontools and ucspi-tcp from the OpenBSD ports.
Then went to the lwq.html and howto for configuration.
I connect through one isp, but usually send/receive mail through other
accounts on different isps.

After creating the supervise/ directories and files, I followed the
step:

  echo '127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""' >>/etc/tcp.smtp
  /usr/local/sbin/qmail cdb

no problem with the first line, except that I don't know if /etc/tcp.smtp
was supposed to exist or it just had to be created (in fact it didn't
exist beforehand).  The second line is another story.  /usr/local/sbin/qmail
did not exist, and looking through the mailing list archives all I saw was a
thread in which someone said to check the magic number (but the file just
doesn't exist!).  Another said to make the link to qmail ... to qmail-inject?
or to one of the sendmail symlinks?

Also, I'm a bit confused about the contents of the files in
 /var/qmail/control/;  I would appreciate a pointer to which file can be
created (assuming I wanted to create them by hand), and what they mean.

Finally, I installed fastforward for using /etc/aliases, but this file is
/etc/mail/aliases in OpenBSD.  If I run 'newaliases', it looks for /etc/aliases
instead of /etc/mail/aliases.  How can I fix that?

Thank you (and my apologies for the long unwanted sig)
