users/assign, users/cdb is optional. if You create user/assign and run
qmail-newu, qmail-lspawn will use it before qmail-local runs fastforward
from alias' qmail-default.

Use ~alias/.qmail-newsletter-default to handle the mails (# man dot-qmail).
or assign the address to a user, in users/assign:
+newsletter-:<user>:... (# man qmail-users),
run qmail-newu and use ~<user>/.qmail-default for handling.
