Hello again,
at first: sorry to ask two big questions a day but I a little lost. With
qmail. Only with qmail. Anymways here we go:
I am supposed to set up a mail server for a little LAN which delivers local
and remote messages via SMTP. For receiving messages I am going to use
serialmail but that's not my problem. At least not yet.
I'm using FreeBSD 4.2 RELEASE and qmail 1.03 from the ports. qmail installed
properly and I can talk to it via TCP/IP on port 25. My local DNS server is
running Bind 8 and working fine without any problems. If I send a message
from a client in the network to a local user on the server qmail accepts the
message and everything looks fine until you start to wonder why qmail isn't
delivering the message. qmail has delivery problems, the /var/log/maillog
file says:
(...) starting delivery 33: msg (...) to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(...) delivery 33: deferral CNAME_lookup_failed_temporarily._ (#4.4.3)\
First of all: The delivery should be a local and not a remote delivery
because my local domain is waagen-schmitt.de. And the second thing is that I
don't understand why qmail has a DNS lookup failure because my DNS server is
running fine. See, I'm pretty lost and confused right now so I'm posting my
config files and I would appreciated if you could tell me where my problem
is. My qmail problem. Ok, config files follow:
filename entry
===================================
bouncefrom postmaster
bouncehost ws1
defaultdomain waagen-schmitt.de
locals waagen-schmitt.de
ws1.waagen-schmitt.de
me ws1.waagen-schmitt.de
plusdomain waagen-schmitt.de
For the qmail startup I'm using tcpserver and my /var/qmail/rc file is a
copy of /var/qmail/boot/binm1.
My domain is waagen-schmitt.de and the hostname of the mail server is ws1.
Right now ws1 has no chance to connect to any other network then my LAN.
Thanks in advance for all the time you invest in my problems.
