It was set to a week. I have it now at 3 hours, queue is still not flushing. I've used the queue_repair.py with -rd options. Only other thing I can think of is to rebuild the queue. >From the addresses coming in, I can tell its' only the logwatch logs and some spam (personal server tryin to learn here). I have checked the permissions in the vpopmail directory. They are correct at 700 with vpopmail and vchkpw as user and group. As far as I can tell all other settings are right with the correct permissions as well. What else should I check? --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In trying to get this to work I came across a bit about the system not liking the maildirs. I check the permissions and they all look fine. I tried some vpopmail commands. And came across this 1 vdelivermail: invalid syntax in .qmail-default file [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# locate .qmail-default /home/vpopmail/domains/buddistpalm.net/.qmail-default /home/vpopmail/domains/sillumutah.com/.qmail-default [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# vi /home/vpopmail/domains/buddistpalm.net/.qmail-default | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' delete That syntax correct? If it is vpopmails fault. Is there a way to fix this without blowing everything away and rebuilding? Not that it'd matter much. There really isn't anything there I need ot keep but is that the issue? --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
