Ahmad:
I don't understand. The Mailbox file in /home/eric receives messages for the
user 'eric'. The system-alias file /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-root contains
'eric'. Mail messages bound for [EMAIL PROTECTED] should go directly to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] - Shouldn't they?
Do you suppose that qmail may be actually looking for a ~Mailbox file for
root?
