qmail alias question

[Manfred Luckmann]

Hi,

i have a problem in setting up alias forwarding

Mail to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' should be forwarded 
to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

so I set up a file ~alias/.qmail-user.name
containing only one line '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
but nothing will be deleivered.

I think the problem is the '.' (dot) in 'user.name'
how can I fix this ?

TIA
Manfred
