Yes I used that when migrating machines
and another very nice little tool is qmail-newmrh which is building the morercpthosts.cdb

about qmail-newu :

NAME
      qmail-newu - prepare address assignments for qmail-lspawn

SYNOPSIS
      qmail-newu

DESCRIPTION
      qmail-newu  reads the assignments in /var/qmail/users/assign and writes 
them into /var/qmail/users/cdb in a binary format suited for quick access by 
qmail-
      lspawn.

      If there is a problem with users/assign, qmail-newu complains and leaves 
users/cdb alone.

      qmail-newu ensures that users/cdb is updated atomically, so qmail-lspawn 
never has to wait for qmail-newu to finish.  However, qmail-newu makes no  
attempt
      to protect against two simultaneous updates of users/cdb.

      The binary users/cdb format is portable across machines.

Nice tip, Philip (could've used that a couple years ago!).
Does qmail-newu do anything other than building the assign.cdb file?

Hello
assign is an editable file (but be careful what you do with it)
then the command qmail-newu builds a cdb binary file called cdb

I'm not really clear about what you're trying to accomplish. There are 2 other places though (other than the sql database) where your domains are defined. One is the /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains, and the other is /var/qmail/users/assign. The later has a cdb file associated with it that's a little tricky to get generated IIRC. You might need to add/delete a dummy domain to get the assign.cdb file rebuilt.

In that case, I think you can simply remove the domain from the
/var/qmail/control/rcpthosts file. See
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Rcpthosts

I'd do that with qmail stopped to be on the safe side (I see a corresponding
.lock file).

Hi Eric (Long time no talk!),

But I don't want to delete the domain... I still have emails I want to
have access to ...

Hi,

I decided that I don't want to maintain my own mail server and I want
to let another service handle this for me.
Notice, I have several domains, and this decision has been made for
just one of them, not all.
I've setup everything but local emails (ie. emails that are being sent from the local cron or other tasks sending to the local server on the
old mail server.

What exactly do I need to do, so that all the local email being sent to this domain, don't go to the old server but get forwarded to my ISP
and then to my new host for my mail server?

Thanks in advance!
