Can i get some documentation on how fcopy -r is supposed to work?

i have tried putting files in /fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/*/CLASSNAME 
to no avail.  i cannot get fcopy -r /var/lib/qmail/alias to work

directory structure looks much like this
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/.qmail-root/MAIL_SERVER
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/.qmail-postmaster/MAIL_SERVER
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/.qmail-mailer-daemon/MAIL_SERVER
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/...etc.../MAIL_SERVER

i have also tried

/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/MAIL_SERVER/.qmail-root
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/MAIL_SERVER/.qmail-postmaster
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/MAIL_SERVER/.qmail-mailer-daemon
/fai/files/var/lib/qmail/alias/MAIL_SERVER/...etc...

it seems the if($opt_r) branch should be finding all subdirectories
under the argument list, and changing the args that copy_one gets
called with accordingly.  This did not appear to be happening.  Maybe
something is happening in the rfilter subroutine.....

Thanks,
