Igor Smitran, thank you so much. You help word and am fine now. Now, my next
worry is how to integrate procmail into the qmail for content filtering purpose
only. Don't forget I am having only virtual users and domains.
Thanks!

You are obviously not reading all our emails. I have told you to search
for smarthost option and yet you are again talking about mail poping
from main server.
You need to setup mdaemon to forward all emails destined to example.com
to your qmail server. qmail doesn't have to do anything. Mail will get
to him.
Let us imagine that instead of MDaemon your fornt mail server is qmail:
1. in your /var/qmail/control/smtproutes file put one line:
your.domain.name:your.qmail.server
That's it.
I see that you are lazy. Even though i never used MDaemon it took me 1
minute to use google and find what you need to do:

We most commonly see MDaemon used in tandem with Wingate to provide
email and general Internet connectivity. If this is your case, you
should also make sure your Wingate proxy is not accessible from outside
your LAN (such that spammers can't access your ISP's mail server via
your proxy!) One way to accomplish this is programming Wingate not to
proxy for connections on Port 25. You can use MDaemon to relay your
mail instead.
Choose the Setup / Primary Domain menu in MDaemon's configuration
program. Look for a Domain / Gateway dialogue that lets you specify
wether MDaemon handles mail delivery itself or instead forwards the
mail to another server.

So, if i got it right, all you need to do is write your domain name
in one field and gateway address (your qmail server address) in
another. After that MDaemon will forward all emails destined to your
domain to your qmail server.

I will do as you say. But one thing I didn't mention is that, I am
going to do away with MDaemon, so for this, I am only doing the domain
pop test for qmail so that, when am sure I can have that function work,
then I will migrate from MDaemon to qmail and have qmail or any other
linux base mail server for clients and have them domain pop their mails
from my main server.

google for smarthost. MDaemon can do
mail forward automaticaly, just
learn what smarthost is. It is not MDaemon function, any mail server
can do that...

I have already setup vpopmail with qmail. The qmail server is even
sending and recieving mails. But what I am trying to get work is that,
there is another server, MDaemon which is serving as a gateway for the
qmail server. So any message sent to my qmail server gets to the
MDaemon first and then the qmail server is suppose to do a domain pop
(catch all account) and now have the message delivered to the
respective virtual users.
Going through google, people sugested getmail or fetchmail but I could
see that, they are not supporting virtual useres but local users.
Also, I don't have to create a pop account for all users on the MDaemon
server, but just one accout as the gateway account so all message for
every users get stored in one folder. So it is now the work of the
domain pop function of the qmail to be able to download the mails and
have it deliver to all the users .
This is what I need help with.
I just hope am making some sense.
cheers
Emma
