If this domain is not in locals, you could also use a virtual user entry in
virtualdomains to do something similar.  For instance, if your account is
"rodney", and you want to capture mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", put this in
virtualdomains:

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:rodney-info

Then, in ~rodney, have a .qmail-info file with a delivery
instruction:

  ./Mail/info/

which files it in a Maildir of that name and path.

If this domain is in locals, you could use an ~alias/.qmail file to forward it
to your personal account (or an extension address of your account).  To
capture mail to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, where example.net is in locals, have a
file ~alias/.qmail-info which contains

  &rodney-info

And then have ~rodney/.qmail-info as above.  There's lots of other ways to do
this too.
