basically what you want to do is add a file called .qmail-stjohns to
/var/qmail/alias, the contents of which would be:
st.johns
That must be on the first line. What will happen is when a mail is sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], qmail will search for the user, see that it doesn't
exist and pass the message on to the alias user. If the alias user can't
find the appropriate file, the message is bounced. However, when you put
this file there, it will route the message to the st.johns user and go with
whatever instructions are in the ~st.johns/.qmail file, probably putting it
into the accounts $HOME/Maildir/
