[qmailtoaster] Need help for backup mail server
Hi all. I need help for the configuration of a backup mail server. I had a primary QMT server working in a breeze from more the one year. Now I need to install a backup server for this: my goal is that this secondary server hold the mail that the primary cannot receive, and then when the primary comes up, the secondary route all the he received to the primary. So i make a new installation of QMT on a new server, than I setup a SMTPROUTES file /var/qmail/control with the following sintax mydomail.it:[xxx.yyy.zz.kk] where xxx.yyy.zz.kk is the IP of the primary mail server and mydomain.it is the domain maintaned from the primary server I had not defined user on the secondary server and now the problem: When the secondary server receive mail for the mydomain.it it answer with a 553 sorry no mailbox here for ... What's wrong in the configuration? Thanks in advice - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Put the domain you want to accept mail for (and cache) in this file and it will start accepting mail for it, and sending it to the primary MX once it's able to receive it. Do not put anything in smtproutes. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Does this behavior relay on dns so that if secondary is marked with higher number (lower priority) and it automagically sees that someone with higher priority ( lower number) also exists in dns and so it knows to send mail to him instead of making a local delivery? - QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted http://www.vr.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It does do a DNS query, so it should keep moving up the MX chain until it reaches the server that performs the local delivery. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

PS: From what I read, I didn't fill those two in so default host and domain are 0 byte. One host only has one domain while the other hosts multiples.

[qmailtoaster] Can't relay from internal servers?
I need to send out using a central server. I've set up tcp.smtp to allow a full private net but machines on that net still can't send out using the QMT machine? Here is the error. (domain.com replaces real name) 2007-11-05 21:31:16.914013500 CHKUSER rejected sender: from [EMAIL PROTECTED]:: remote compdev.domain.com:unknown:192.168.1.58 rcpt : invalid sender MX domain Why would an MX record be used internally? When I check from DNS-STUFF for example, my MX's show up just fine. PS: It is also not 100% clear to me if my defaulthost and defaultdomain files should have anything in them. For example, one QMT server handles a number of domains while another handles only one domain. Neither has these files filled in based on something I read. Can someone enlighten me on this. Thanks.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Invalid Sender
The sendmail program (which is a wrapper for qmail-inject) appends the domain in the control/defaulthost file to the user's Email address. I'm not certain if it is needed or ever used, but on my toaster the control/defaultdomain file contains the same line as the control/defaulthost file. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com Sent: Monday, November 05, 2007 5:54 PM Subject: RE: [qmailtoaster] Invalid Sender PS: From what I read, I didn't fill those two in so default host and domain are 0 byte.

Perhaps a look at http://www.nrg4u.com/qmail/the-big-qmail-picture-103-letter.pdf would be helpful in answering your latter questions.
