[vchkpw] Problem with email bouncing
Hey guys this is weird and I hope you can help me really quick. I have 5 different domains each with there own qmail/vpopmail/ instances. I set each up exactly the same, installed qmail with its own uid/gid and each has there own home directories. Example trells.com was installed in /var/qmail and then vpopmail in /opt/ vpopmail/5.3.27 Then for each different domain there in a seperate directory structure such as /opt/domains/bazalar/qmail and /opt/ domains/bazalar/vpopmail/5.3.27 and so forth. Trells.com works just fine however the bazalar.com and others are giving me an error like 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. To my knowledge vpopmail removes the locals entry and places everything in the virtualdomains file. Please help this is getting annoying. Thanks, Trell

It should have put the domain names in /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts or morercpthosts (in addition to control/virtualhosts and users/assign). I'm not sure I understand your directory structure. On most qmail installations, you have one instance of qmail installed to /var/qmail, one instance of vpopmail installed to /home/vpopmail, and then all of the domains are stored in /home/vpopmail/domains (with the domain name as the directory name). -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] QmailAdmin: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/ Vpopmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ Info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester: http://sniffter.com/

Hi Trell, Trells.com works just fine however the bazalar.com and others are giving me an error like 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. Besides the fact that I don't understand your weird directory structure: This error is raised by qmail; vpopmail is not involved (yet). Please post the output of /var/qmail/bin/qmail-showctl. To my knowledge vpopmail removes the locals entry and places everything in the virtualdomains file. If the domain is in locals, it should be in [more]rcpthosts, too. Otherwise your qmail configuration is broken. If the domain is in [more]rcpthosts, vadddomain will not add it because it already exists. Conclusion: vadddomain will not delete the domain from locals to put it into virtualdomains. Instead it will refuse to add the domain. Jonas
