1 Hi!
2 Just wandering, what are those ".keep" files for?
3 Looks to me like a very ugly hack.
4 Anyway, ebuild for qmail should not install them in the
5 queue directory, for qmail-qstat to work properly.
6 Also qmail rc file should be config-protected.
7 As there's no config-protection on per file basis (am I right?)
8 we should change it to:
9 ---------------------
10 #!/bin/sh
11 exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
12 qmail-start "`cat /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery`"
13 ---------------------
14
15 with control/defaultdelivery containing;
16 -------------
17 |dot-forward .forward
18 ./.maildir/
19 -------------
20 It will also fix the bug in current rc file: "dor-forward and
21 ./.maildir/ should be on SEPARATE lines.
22
23 Gentoo rules :-)
