To forward system generated mail to a qmail account, is it a requirement to first create a similar vpop account prior to forwarding ?
***Note - Mail & DNS is hosted on the machine. Under /var/qmail/alias I created the following files: .qmail-anonymous .qmail-mailer-daemon .qmail-postmaster .qmail-root which all has one entry pointing to a valid vpopmail account. i.e <mailto:&j...@server.com> &j...@server.com /var/qmail/control/me reads ns.server.com #hostname -fqdn ns.server.com However, it doesn't seem to work correctly as per the following example: Received: (qmail 2725 invoked for bounce); 16 Feb 2014 23:25:01 -0000 Date: 16 Feb 2014 23:25:01 -0000 From: mailer-dae...@ns.server.com To: postmas...@ns.server.com Subject: failure notice Hi. This is the qmail-send program at ns.server.com. I tried to deliver a bounce message to this address, but the bounce bounced! <r...@server.com>: Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1) --- Below this line is the original bounce. Return-Path: <> Received: (qmail 2704 invoked for bounce); 16 Feb 2014 23:25:01 -0000 Date: 16 Feb 2014 23:25:01 -0000 From: mailer-dae...@ns.server.com To: r...@server.com Subject: failure notice Hi. This is the qmail-send program at ns.server.com I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <r...@server.com>: Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1) --- Below this line is a copy of the message.
