In a message purporting to be from "Emerson, Tom (*IC)"
<Tom.Emerson at wbconsultant.com> but lacking a digital signature, it is
written:

> I've got a strange problem with a system that uses qmail.  Messages
> sent to a specific EXISTING user are getting bounced with "no
> mailbox here with that name"

> Messages to other existing users are fine; aliases set up via
> ~alias/.qmail-aliasname work when sending to other users within the
> system.

As well as mailbox permissions for that user, mentioned in my previous
post, another thing to worry about is whether that user matches any of
the special categories identified in the qmail configuration for that
host, perhaps files in /etc/qmail.  As I recall, certain matches there
can lead to mail refusal.
