hi all,

I am trying to run qmail 1.3 on my testing pc with FreeBSD4.2.  I did made
it to send/receive mails to ~user/mailbox.
However i am trying to make it to deliver all mails to /var/mail/users.  It
was not success.
I just changed the rc file as follow: (same as binm1 file)
============================================================================
========
#!/bin/sh

xec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start \
'|preline -f /usr/libexec/mail.local -r "${SENDER:-MAILER-DAEMON}" -d
"$USER"' \
splogger qmail
============================================================================
======

Then restart qmail and send test message.  The email did not go anywhere and
there is an error message in the log:
============================================================================
======

============================================================================

My purpose of having qmail to deliver mail to /var/mail/ is that would be
easier for me to see everyone's email account at once, instead of going to
each one of their directory and no need to create link for new user account.
Please let me know what i missed.

Is there any good site for qmail admin? and what is the lastest version of
qmail and where can i get it if there is?

Thanks,

Derrick
