Hi,
I have setup a qmail server and it works fine.
However, there is a big problem I can't figure it out. Please tell me your
suggestions:
I created a file .qmail-marcos.tang at /var/qmail/alias and hope that my
qmail will accept mails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] When I sent a message from
outside, I found the error message at /var/log/syslog. It is
============================== Start Logging here
======================================================
Apr 21 00:36:32 student qmail: 924626192.905650 starting delivery 323: msg
212178 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Apr 21 00:36:32 student qmail: 924626192.905651 status: local 1/10 remote 0/20
Apr 21 00:36:33 student qmail: 924626193.029219 delivery 323: failure:
Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)/
============================== End Logging here
======================================================
If I change my .qmail file from .qmail-marcos.tang to .qmail-marcostang,
everything works fine.
^ (with a dot) ^ (without a dot)
So I wonder my qmail doesn't know how to handle an email address with a "dot" between.
Of course, I believe qmail should be able to handle it :)
Do you give me any ideasor hints such that my qmail server can receive any
email addresses such as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Marcos.
