Consider the possibility that this could be a spamdyke option/issue. I mention this because with my centos5 toaster I had to manually install spamdyke but it installed automatically with my recent centos7 toaster. Also, the spamdyke version has upgraded from 4.x to 5.x which was a fairly significant change.
You could test this easily by commenting out the spamdyke line in /var/qmail/supervise/smtpd and then restarting qmail. If that solves the problem, then spamdyke is the culprit and you should then scour the spamdyke docs for the appropriate setting to change. -Andy On 9/11/2018 6:51 AM, Jeff Koch wrote: > Hi Eric: > > This was an old Bill's Toaster and for reasons I can't remember (going > back to 1999) user's couldn't put '@' asteriks in their usernames so we > had them use percent signs which Bill's toaster accepted. > > Jeff > > On 9/11/2018 10:23 AM, Eric Broch wrote: >> >> Hi Jeff, >> >> How old was the toaster?
