Hmmm, don't know how Qmail handles aliases, but if you mean, for example,
mail comes in for person a, but that's aliased to person b's mailbox
either using /etc/aliases or whatever other means Qmail uses.  Person B
then wants their mail to go to some mailbox elsewhere, could even be
outside your network.  This can be done with the use of a .forward file in
B's home directory.  I don't exactly know the syntax, but if Qmail docs
can't help you, the Procmail man page and other docs probably can.

As for the second question, I can't help here as I don't use Qmail, I just
answered above from a general mta point of view.

Cheers, and hope it helped.
