Use of symbolic links under qmail

[Director tecnico--Nodo Nicarao]

Hi,

I would like ask you some simple question about the symbolic links unde
qmail. Is it necessary to create symbolic links in order to qmail to work 
properly? I have read in the last messages that the only adventage on
creating these links may be that the user will be notified if they recived 
new mail (when they are logged). Is this true for both shell and POP
accounts or only for text shell accounts?
