Beside this: if you set up 'domain1.com' being handled as 'virtual domain' and told vpopmail to take care of it it's quite normal and intended that '/var/qmail/alias/.qmail-...' will not work for this domain. That's what the domains directory is for. Once again: you set the domain up with 'vadddomain', you therefore told qmail how to handle this domain. Why should qmail look in the 'fall back' location for delivery instructions? Get a clue how qmail-send and qmail-local works, read how 'virtualdomains' and '/var/qmail/users/cdb' (binary version of 'assign') is used by qmail. And than recognize why an alias for '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' needs to be defined in '~vpopmail/domains/domain1.com/' and why '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' /NEVER/ can be a /SYSTEM ALIAS/ when 'domain1.com' is set up as 'virtual domain' (maybe you already see something contrary here: "VIRTUALDOMAIN" vs. "SYSTEM [alias]"?!?!) -- Best regards Peter Palmreuther Mouse + mouse = mice. .
