Re: suddenly cannot receive email
Should I chown the top four to alias? Three of them have worked in the past, but garnette has not worked at all.

That was it! Thank you so much. I don't have a copy, but think I can rebuild now that I know what I did!

I have taken it back out of locals and left it in rcpthosts. I did another test. It is no longer giving the 'looping" message, but is still not getting through. Here is the error message: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host, it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6)
suddenly cannot receive email
Until I get this mess fixed, please cc responses to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry, but it is the only way I can receive email right now. I seem to have done something to break my qmail. Yesterday afternoon, I added a virtual user in /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains and put his forwarding address in alias/.qmail-garnette-monte and added his domain to rcpthosts then restarted. I did not notice at the time (because I left work right after that), but I have not received ANY email since I did that. We have a UNIX box running BSDi 4.0, QMail, Apache and FP. This morning I did a 'tail -f /var/log/maillog' and found tons of bounce messages going out and the following messages about incoming mail: Jun 7 09:57:54 midnightsun qmail: 991925874.483380 starting delivery 434: msg 2 77962 to remote [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jun 7 09:57:54 midnightsun qmail: 991925874.490779 status: local 0/10 remote 1/ 20 Jun 7 09:57:54 midnightsun qmail: 991925874.510962 delivery 434: failure: Sorry _Although_I'm_listed_as_a_best-preference_MX_or_A_for_that_host,/it_isn't_in_my _control/locals_file,_so_I_don't_treat_it_as_local._(#5.4.6)/ I cehecked control/locals and found my main server, 'midnightsun.chismtrail.com' so I added just plain 'chismtrail.com' in case that might be the problem, even though it has been working like that just fine in the past. It did not help. Now I am getting the following messages: Jun 7 10:14:54 midnightsun qmail: 991926894.296843 starting delivery 35: msg 27 7963 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jun 7 10:14:54 midnightsun qmail: 991926894.306096 status: local 1/10 remote 0/ 20 Jun 7 10:14:54 midnightsun qmail: 991926894.338870 delivery 35: deferral: Unabl e_to_chdir_to_maildir._(#4.2.1)/ and Jun 7 10:16:35 midnightsun qmail: 991926995.777267 delivery 38: failure: This_m essage_is_looping:_it_already_has_my_Delivered-To_line._(#5.4.6)/ and Jun 7 10:35:46 midnightsun qmail: 991928146.945873 starting delivery 70: msg 27 7962 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jun 7 10:35:46 midnightsun qmail: 991928146.955071 status: local 1/10 remote 0/ 20 Jun 7 10:35:46 midnightsun qmail: 991928146.987598 delivery 70: failure: Sorry, _no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)/ There is a [EMAIL PROTECTED], in /usr/var/vpopmail/users qmail-default .qmail-igy .qmail-walter .qmail-wvchism9 postmaster qmail-gin .qmail-root .qmail-wdchism abc walt qmail-iggy .qmail-swap .qmail-wlat guest webmaster Where else can I look to find the problem?
