hi there,

Can you help me with setting up the QMAIL 1.03 please. I've dloaded but yet can
figure out how to setup it. So what I've done :

I dloaded .src.rpm files builded and installed them, as it seems it works i.e
runs, but from here I don't know what to do. I've searched on the Internet for
a docs but doesn't found anything good for the beginer.
No place neither on www.qmail.org, that explains the decision qmail(packges)
gets based on say configfileX and/or EnvVarX, even on the big pictures they are
simply mentoined.
 Till this moment I've never run mail server under Linux, so please get my
apologies for the silly questions. OK here goes  :

1. How to tell to QMAIL that mail box ( I want to use maildir, as I read it is
the preffable chioce) for user xxx is /var/qmail/maildirs/digicom-bg/xxx. I
don't know is this the right desicion for the directory place. Digicom.bg is my
domain (i've read that is best to separate dirs for every domain). So which 
configuration files to change? how?
Meanwhile I've run the config-fast and as it seems /control dir is good. 
2. qmail-popup doesn't  start by default so at moment I must start it manualy,
is this by design? No problem for the moment when I see that all works I will
add necessary link in /rc3.d
3. The configuration must give me a choice to run more domains i.e.
virtualdomains later.
4. For the tests I use checkpasswd, but as a final desicion I want to auth
against ->SQLDB and/or ->Radius->SQLDB server (that I'm prepearing at the
moment too). I've seen that there is a auth program against Radius server but
haven't take a closer look at it.
 5. For the creation of new user what I must do - makemaildir  or
what ? If I auth against Radius server is it necessary to make/create .cdb
files ? 
6.  For these changes what I must do to make my configuration
available w/o restarting. make a "ps xa | grep qm" and you will understand me
:")
7. And finally what about the owner of all these dir's. As I read qmail is very
sensitive about who is the owner of every dir.

In general I can't understand how lspawn and pop3d daemons decide which
directory to use for delivery/listing/... operations.

 If you want mail me directly, so not cluttering the list.
Thanx alot in advance.
