That seems okay.

That seems okay as well.

Good.

That's a typo; you can delete that file.

Indeed.  As the next thing, how about the output of the following commands:
    `ls -ld / /var /var/qmail /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/alias/.qmail*`
    `cat /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-threeacesolutions-info`
    `ls -ld ~alias`

On the contrary; I get the satisfaction of seeing someone actually putting
the effort into running qmail, and being polite about it at the same time.
