splogger in my /var/qmail/rc... *oops*

multilog and missing info
I was previously using splogger, and I just upgraded daemontools and set up svscan. Now logs are written with multilog, however I am not seeing as much information in my logs as with splogger.

The question here is how to authenticate both users using the same pop server. To do that, just make a unique user and group for your virtual users. Check out http://freshmeat.net/projects/checklocalpwd/ for a version of checkpassword that can authenticate in this manner. I also recommend setting up all of your real users on the same interface as your virtual users and then symbolically linking the mail directory to which the virtual account would normally point to the real user's mail directories. Keep inherent permissions in mind here or you'll have a big security hazard. If you can't find a secure way of doing that, you can always just write a shell script which will update the real users' e-mail directories off from their virtual accounts and either make it a command or throw it in your crontab. -- Keith Network Engineer Triton Technologies, Inc.

You appear to be logging through multilog (good). It logs into a series of files in a directory you specify. That directory is specified in the file "run" located in the service directory.

It worked with sendmail and now does not work with qmail. For some reason, lots of people seem to have trouble with this script. I would suggest that the script is broken, but it works for us. You'll need to provide some useful information for us to be able to tell you why it's failing -- exit codes from the sendmail wrapper and log messages showing the failure would be best.

Finally -- the error message was for root and not for eric...
There's probably nothing wrong with eric's mailbox but qmail cannot find
a way to deliver mail to root (which happens to be an alias to eric).
Do you have a /var/qmail/users/assign and does it say anything about
root?? Do you need qmail-users (I use it primarily for NFS)??
Check file permissions.
Have you tried if other aliases (eg ~.alias/.qmail-postmaster) work??

OK, so delivery is going to the right place. Sounds like user alias
cannot read ~alias/.qmail-root. What's your output of:
user@host:$ ls -l ~alias/.qmail-root
-rw-r--r-- 6 root qmail 19 Jan 29 17:41 /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-root

Well, a few of you got the correct answer; but I'm afraid you have to be
more specific:
Eric, just add these lines to your /var/qmail/users/assign file:
=alias:alias:1002:102:/var/qmail/alias:::
+alias-:alias:1002:102:/var/qmail/alias:-::
and make sure you end the assign file with a line that just has a dot on
it and there is no other line in the file with just a dot.
To process this new assign file, do:
qmail-newu
and you should be all set to go.
BTW, just keep those alias files as the username you're trying to
forward to ('eric') to reduce overhead resouce usage.

The OP never mentioned usign users/assign, IIRC. You're quite possibly
correct, but if so the OP didn't give us necessary information -- if
users/assign is not populated, ~alias/.qmail-
