What were you trying to achieve ? --- it might be simpler than you think. I just discovered that most of my alias handling under qmail was drivel, and could be dome much more simply. > If someone wants to spend some time on a simple mailer hack, you can > make this work. If you want mail to, for instance: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to get sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Assuming that packages.debian.org is just an alternative name for master, then you just need to generate a couple of lines in /var/qmail/users/assign for each package, like this: =rsync:philh:952:800:/home/Debian/philh::: +rsync-:philh:952:800:/home/Debian/philh:-:: Having to put the UID GID numbers in the file is a pain, but that can be avoided, with one extra ~alias file.
