I think he means .qmail-foo files, containing a file/address to
send username-foo to.

I use;

userforward:
driver = forwardfile
file_transport = address_file
pipe_transport = address_pipe
reply_transport = address_reply
no_verify
no_expn
check_ancestor
file = .forward${local_part_suffix}
filter
suffix = DSUFFIX*
suffix_optional
condition = ${if exists{$home}{true}{} }

procmail:
  driver = localuser
  transport = procmail_pipe
  require_files = "${local_part}:${home}/.procmailrc:+PROCMAILDIR/procmail\
                    :+!${home}/.forward"
  suffix = DSUFFIX*
  suffix_optional
  no_expn
  no_verify
  condition = ${if exists{$home}{true}{} }


localuser:
driver = localuser
transport = local_delivery

suffixes_verify:
driver = localuser
suffix = DSUFFIX*
verify_only
no_expn
