Question
There is a covered pergola for the sukkah in front of the house, and the supporting columns create several doorway forms through which one enters the house. Is it obligated in a mezuzah?
Answer
If the doorway form was not intentionally created as an entrance but because there are supporting columns and it appears as an entrance, it does not obligate a mezuzah.
