Hey Bill,
The total stuff sounds great. I'd like to integrate the
alias and forwards together. I also would like to make an
easier mailing list page. 3 simple pre-selected type of
mailing lists, like newletter, mailing list, moderated
mailing list, and a full page with all the options.
I also will check out the vacation code. I'm not sure if
I put in the correct setup code to use the autoresponder2.0
version.
about .qmail files:
It's a good idea untill you have a very large domain. Think about
having 50,000 users all forwarding thier email. You would end up
with 50,000 .qmail files in the domain directory. That's why
it went in the users directory, for efficency on large systems.
