newbie on qmail
Hi, I've just switched from sendmail to qmail. Almost every thing is working fine except for my netscape mail. In sendmail, I fetched my mail from an Exchange Server and used my local machine for outgoing mails. Since switching from sendmail, I now get the #5.7.1 message. I do understand that this is a relay problem. This is my tcm.smtp. 203.172.10.50:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" 127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" :allow 203.172.10.50 is where I get my mail. And I do tcprules /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /etc/tcp.smtp.tmp < /etc/tcp.smtp However I still get the #5.7.1 error. Any help is appreciated.

Creating aliases
Hi! I am still new with qmail and I can't create an alias for an user. Say, the user name is ABC and I want him to have an alias of DEC. DEC is not a valid username. What i did was to echo ABC > .qmail-DEC. Is this right? When I sent an email to DEC@localhost, I get an error. Any help would be much appreciatted. Joel
Re: Creating aliases
I was able to create an alias however it does not work when I use mutt when I use the alias. I get an error no such user. But with sqwebmail, I worked fine. Any ideas?

Sending mail
I was able to set up pop3 and my students can get and read their email using their POP client. However, they can not send to other host but mine. Below is the error message: The message can not be sent because one of the recipient was rejected by the server Protocol SMTP, server response 553 sorry that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1) . Is it due to the fact that I don't do relay? Or is it something else? -- Joel Gatdula Pira Faculty Institute of IT Studies University of Asia and the Pacific Pearl Drive, Ortigas Center, Pasig City
