How to earn transaction fees

[freifallspoiler]

Hello,

I am very new to the bitcoin topic and read that there is a transaction fee that is earned by other bitcoin users that confirm transactions. Does my qt-client do this automatically or do I have to run a different software for confirmations?

Thank you in advance for helping me to understand the system.

Miners get them. So unless you mine (in a pool wich pay the fees and don't keep them), you don't get them. "confirming" means finding blocks and put transactions in them
