That is a security issue. Instead it delivers to the ~alias/.qmail-postmaster .qmail file if you have installed qmail from the debianized source, and .qmail-root if you have installed on your own. But there is no way you can make qmail to deliver to a user whose directory is owned by root. Robert Varga
