Just in case others don't have the context of this posting, we are
troubleshooting
a Qmail (.qmail-test) alias containing a command (ie /home/medi/l/foo)

[medi@samba medi]$ ls -ld / /home /home/medi /home/medi/l /home/medi/l/foo
drwxr-xr-x   23 root     root         4096 Dec 13 13:59 /
drwxr-xr-x   39 root     root         4096 Feb  7 12:35 /home
drwx------   10 medi     users        4096 Feb 13 18:30 /home/medi
drwxr-xr-x    2 medi     users        4096 Feb 13 18:50 /home/medi/l
-rwxr-xr-x    1 medi     users          94 Feb 13 18:40 /home/medi/l/foo
[medi@samba medi]$

Since medi's home dir is too strict, I moved foo(1) to /tmp/foo. I now get
the following

Feb 14 13:10:09 samba qmail: 982185009.542210 starting delivery 12197: msg

So looks like qmail is not recognizing the command and thinking its a
user's name.
FYI I don't have any user called "test", such an alias
/var/qmail/alias/.qmail-test
