No, I use my manual lists without a problem.
If I ever have to install on a system that does not allow normal use of an
alias table by a normal user, then I might try something else.
But under my resellers account on AIT, I get to do whatever I want with
aliases, and the lists work find =)
I would not be able to install qmail on my ISP, so that is not an option
either.
So, my solution works great for me, I have my own administrative routines in
PHP for adding aliases, writing lists, and storing the master data in mysql
databases. It all works cleanly without a hitch.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it ;)
Cheers!
