About one month ago I reported a strange behaviour when sending any mail to
@whatever. It seems that those mails gets lost instead of sending to catchall or
bounce.
I debugged it and wrote that the problem should be one line in qmail-lspawn.c
(please also see my mail below) referred to qmail-ldap-1.03-20010501.
qmail-lspawn.c in function spawn():
772 if (!r[0]) _exit(0); /* <> */
I did not find any comments to this till now.
IMHO this line is the reason for my problem. What's the sense of it? My problem
can be fixed if I just comment out this line.
Is it Bug (Andre, Claudio)?
Regards
Daniel

I don't understand why it should accept mails that do not have any rcpt. Is this
a RFC requirement?

Ok, maybe I found something in qmail-lspawn.c in function spawn():
771 r[at] = 0;
772 if (!r[0]) _exit(0); /* <> */
773
774 if (chdir(auto_qmail) == -1) _exit(QLX_USAGE);
775
776 /* do the address lookup */
777 rv = qldap_get(&ra, s, fdmess);
I think the problem is in line 772. When the rcpt is empty qmail-lspawn exits.
The ldap lookup to see if there is any user (then it would send to catchall or
bounce) is just afterwards in line 777.
