Greeting:

sorry for bringing up qmail again.
I am able to get my mail sent to my user account henninb, but i can't get 
mail for root or postmaaster.
I am trying to use qmail with the Maildir protocol.

here is what i get in my log file.

I read in the documentation that no mail can be sent to the root account, 
but I thought it said you could have it sent there if you like.
On thing i noticed on my user account is that my ~/.qmail and 
~alias/qmail-henninb
file don't do anything either because when I remove them the mail still gets 
delivered to
my Maildir.

I put entries in them like: ./Maildir/ , but that

how can i get my ~/.qmail or ~alias/qmail-root file working for root and 
postmaster?

Thanks,

Brian
