If qmailadmin doesn't let you create it you can create it by hand.
Why would you want to send a copy of the users email address someplace
else and also deliver a copy to their vpopmail box?

But that way I am just creating an alias, right ?
Because I can´t create a new forward with the same name of an already
existent account.
With sendmail I was able to create an alias with the same name of an
existent user (and even forward it to the same-name user). That was how I
did the mail-copying : i create the user, an alias with the same name, and
then forwarded the alias to the user (with the same name) and the
mailmaster repository.
With Qmail I don't know how to do this easily
Create a forward from the main menu.
Not from the user modification page
The user mod page creates a .qmail file in
the users Maildir area
The forward on the main menu creates
a .qmail-forwardname file in the
domain's main directory

Whenever I create a forward, either as a user (creating my own forward)
or
as postmaster creating a forward on someone account, qmailadmin always
create the same file : .qmail
This way, the user can reset the forward.
Am I doing something wrong ?

Hi,
I would like to have some email accounts copied/forwarded to some other
accounts. I don't mind if the user sees that the account is being
forward
and to whom. What I don't want is that the user have the capability of
disabling that forward. However, it should be possible for the user to
create/change/delete his owns forwards.
If I manually change the .qmail, the forward appears in qmailadmin but
the
user can disable it.
How can I do this ? Is it possible to this without changing the
qmailadmin
code ? (I thought about a file created by qmailadmin that would have
the
.qmail entries that should not be altered by non-admin users)
You might be able to create a forward with qmailadmin. Which
writes a .qmail-user file. The user won't be able to change
that. They could only change their own forwards.
The other way would be to use the qmail-tap patch that lets you
tap any email address and send a copy to an address of your choice.
