The hosts line in nsswitch.conf reads:
hosts: files nisplus nis dns
I don't use NIS.

Ok. I had 'search axon.is' and 'nameserver 194.144.127.194'. Tried to also
remove search but it didn't change anything. Now I only have 'nameserver
127.0.0.1'.

Yes. qmail-qstat says it has 0 preprocessed messages in the queue but 2
waiting to be sent. I was just wondering if qmail did some header building
or something based on information it had at the time. Say that I now change
my setup in some way but that change isn't reflected in the old messages in
the queue as the have already been preprocessed, so next time qmail tries to
deliver them, they fail.
