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 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.

Cheers, Phil.
