I've searched all the www.qmail.org info that I can find and I'm still
unable to resolve a problem that I'm having.  I replaced sendmail on my RH
Linux 6.0 box (kernel 2.2.12) with qmail 1.03.  I'm able to send messages to
anywhere and but only receive messages from my local LAN.  I have restarted
qmail several times and verified that my /var/qmail/control/locals and
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts both have the appropriate values.  I'm using
daemontools-0.53 and ucspi-tcp-0.84.  Here is some more info:

Also, the mail server is on the inside of a firewall.  That said, sendmail
was working fine before so I don't think it is a firewall issue.

Why can't I receive email from outside my LAN?  BTW, folks are getting the
following in a "bounced" email:
