An interesting side-note I thought I'd add, qmail-inject from the command
line works perfectly. Using qmail-inject the message goes to
~bob/Maildir/new the way it's suppose to. So the question still stands, how
do I configure qmail-smtpd to place mail where it's supposed to?
The SMTP entry in my inetd.conf looks like this:
smtpstream tcp nowait qmaild /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
qmail-smtpd

I just started learning Linux last week and am installing a few internet
services to include qmail.
When I send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] my /etc/maillog reports that
everything went fine, however when I try to retrieve the email using
POP3 I have no messages. And when I look in /home/bob/Maildir there is
nothing in cur,new, or tmp. So it appears that the mail is goinng
somewhere else, I just can't figure out where. (bob is just the example
I am using I haven't created any other functional mail accounts yet)
My /var/qmail/rc file looks like this;
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start ./Maildir/ splogger qmail
And my /etc/inetd.conf looks like this;
pop-3 stream tcp nowait root/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
qmail-popup mydomain.com /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir
(all on one line of course)
The MAIL=$HOME/Maildir environment variable in my /etc/profile is set
and verified.
I used maildirmake on bob's home directory and chowned it for him.
I am running Redhat Linux
What am I missing?
