how does one add multiple recipients to a user in /etc/aliases for
forwarding? (format)?

I'm using qmail aliases to create simple mailing

Hi,
I am having trouble using /etc/aliases.
I have installed fastforward and followed the instructions on

I've just set up qmail and it's working pretty well. In fact, too

Hi.
I've tried looking through qmail's documentation, but as I am
self-declared idiot, I've made no sense out of it.
What I want to do is for useless.dhs.org to be the same as far as mail
goes as findus.dhs.org, the domain I regularly use. They both resolve to
the same IP, and they're both mine.
Please don't post a new question by replying to a previous message -- it
really messes up the threading in our MUAs and in the mailing list archives.
Post a new message instead.

I am still new with qmail and I can't create an alias for an user.
Say, the user name is ABC and I want him to have an alias of DEC.
DEC is not a valid username.
What i did was to echo ABC > .qmail-DEC.

Aliases are evaluated as part of local delivery and as such are totally
re-evaluated each time. It's not knowledge that qmail retains in anyway.

This works for me. I think it supports the sendmail form of /etc/alias

At the risk of being flamed, I think sendmail's method is neater.

When qmail is searching for a .qmail filename,
or one:
.qmail-360
In theory, mail sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should be delivered. Qmail spits
it back out and moans about it.

Hi,
I successfully installed qmail on Solaris 5.8 by following Dave Sill's
web-page. Now, I'd like to create an alias to specific users. I created
a file (assign) on /var/qmail/users/. What are the following
instructions?

Since OBSD doesn't seem to want to let me have user
names over 8 characters, I'd like to set up an alias
to a user account to solve the problem. My impression
was that I could just do the following:
1) create /home/alias/.qmail-thealiasname, containing
/home/username/Maildir
2) chown that file to

Sure, it might reduce the number of unwanted messages, but there is no
guarantee it will stop everything. It's not much more difficult to set
up ezmlm and do it the right way. Aliases are low tech and should not be
used for more than 2-3 recipients, imho. ;-)

hello,
I tried to set up qmail aliases via .qmail-alias and it worked well
with single names.
But all aliases like .qmail-melanie.desaive etc. did not work.
I tried to escape the dot with \ # "" but nothing worked.
I did not find anything about this problem in the qmail documenta
I am sorry if this has been touched on before, but after going through a
plethora of messages, I have been unable to find what I am looking for.
I am trying to set up multiple domains with multiple aliases. For example:
Joe B. has a login of joeb and an email address of - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yet
I run a small mailserver (20+ users) internally that routes all our mail
plus internet mail. I am thinking of setting up some type of mailing list
so users can send to the whole company on just one address so they each
don't have to keep a list on each machine. Can this be done with aliase
