I just restarted qpsmtpd after a reboot and it was no longer receiving
mail. In my logs I saw messages that said
method Net::DNS::Header::nextid undefined at ./qpsmtpd-forkserver line 288.
The problem is in this block of code:
# all children should have different seeds, to prevent conflicts
srand();
for (0 .. rand(65536)) {
Net::DNS::Header::nextid();
}
That method was removed in Net-DNS-0.69, which was released on
December 5. I changed that line to
Net::DNS::Header::id();
That fixed my immediate problem, but since I don't really understand
what that block is trying to do, I don't know if it introduces any
other problems.
