so all those hundreds and thousands people wont spend their a minute or two
to read this none sense.. the reason i wrote here at first place was for
reason, i couldn't get it to work and i couldn't find answer for my question
.. so i did.. there is nothing wrong with that.. from what i see in all
those mailing list.. people asking even more stupidest question then i am..
if you feel so busy then don't read e-mail, ignore it, unsubscribe from the
list READ subject (thats what they are for) and you won't have to read
rest.. i'm 100% sure that very same questions is being asked here over and
over and not all people are going to archive to look for answers..

You need to learn some basic netiquette.  To save you the pain of learning it
through the usual fiery ordeal, here's a couple of tips:

1)  Every message you send to a mailing list costs some hundreds or thousands
of other users a minute or two to read.  If you happen to ask a question which
is clearly answered in the documentation, the various FAQs, or in the mailing
list archives, you have just wasted that time for every other member of the
list.  This is considered extremely rude.  It also lowers the signal-to-noise
ratio of the list, making it a less useful resource for you and everyone else.
This is why netiquette requires that you "lurk" on the mailing list, reading
it but not posting, for the first few weeks.  That way, you see all the common
questions & answers go by, and probably answer all the common newbie questions
you have at this point.

2)  Statements like ``most of that "high qulified IT professionals" are same
as me who's just looking for help'' are inflammatory, incorrect, and
misguided.  This list has, as members, the author of qmail, and the authors of
all the most commonly used add-ons, patches, supplemental documentation, and
complementary packages, as well as dozens of other people who are simply very
knowledgable users of qmail.

You're not doing a spectacular job of it, then.  Try harder in the future.

I am not a prophet, but with this attitude you will have a hard time on

If you don't want to have to wear asbestos underwear you'd better do some
preliminary research and RTFM in the future.

Read the man page of dot-qmail. If you put in your userid this creates
a forward to itself.

> can i do same w/ .qmail?

For example with

.qmail:
--
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
./Maildir/
--

This forwards the mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and stores it
in your Maildir.

Put in your .qmail file:
#
./Maildir/
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
#

This will put a copy of your email into the maildir named "Maildir"
(please note the triling "/") in your $HOME and it will forward a copy of
the email to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
If you use mailbox delivery change the first line to e.g.
#
./Mailbox
&[EMAIL PROTECTED]
#
(no trailing "/" this time ;-)
