Thanks to mrsam, I can now send mail out of my system (note the return address :-)! Now I have a configuration question I'd like to track down. I am trying to disassociate all of my mail accounts from any local accounts. I am part way there. I set up the hosteddomains / esmtpacceptmail for dir.s/files to have a line that now includes my local domain. Then I *removed* that local domain from the 'hosted' file. I set up the userdb files and accounts and the maildir files, and ran authtest to check it all out. Everything clicked. No sweat. Then I used my mail client to access the IMAP folders in this new directory for the account. Again no problem, IMAP finds the hosted accounts Maildir and chugs merrily along.
Now... I do an SMTP test. Here's the problem. All mail still gets delivered to my local account instead of the new hosted domain account. So I decide to fix courier's wagon... I take *out* pam authentication in an attempt to force authdaemon to use userdb to find the correct userdb info. It doesn't do so, because at this point, it won't authenticate at all with a 'User unknown' error. Question: is there a way to make courier run mail for users in the local domain that it is accepting mail for that will use userdb information rather than the local account information? telnet localhost 25 Trying 127.0.0.1...
