attempting to track down how this happened and have hit a wall. When I do
'tail -f /var/log/maillog' I get current activity. If I do 'more

I need to learn how to restart qmail on my BSDi system. I have not been
able to locate a qmail-restart in any of the qmail directories.
Whenever I make changes in qmail, I have had to resort to `shutdown -r now`
thus rebooting the entire system. I don't like doing this.
Someone told me to try
But I don't think BSDi knows the killall command.
That is exactly correct. I was able to find the PID and restart the
qmail-send. Thanks to all who responded.
I am working on the Unix books, but find some of them are written in
techno-shorthand. I need a dictionary to go along with them.
Just to get the syntax right in my mind (and my notes), as I understand from
the information I have received,
'echo newdomain.com:alias-newdomain /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains'
will overwrite virtualdomains, while
'echo newdomain.com:alias-newdomain \
/var/qmail/control/virtualdomains'
OK, I am learning, slowly but surely. Now I need to know how to send a
SIGHUP. I don't think it is good for my system to keep rebooting every time
I make a change in qmail. In /var/qmail/bin I have qmail-start, but have
not been able to locate a qmail-restart or a qmail-stop anywhere. If I

Sorry, but it is the only way I can receive email right now.
I seem to have done something to break my qmail. Yesterday afternoon, I
added a virtual user in /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains and put his
forwarding address in
And now, just to add fat to the fire, my boss cannot access his email. I'll
deal with that tomorrow. -- Scarlett O'Hara
None of my alias addresses work. I guess I need to put all the domains back
in virtual. I know I can do it through the 'echo
eachdomain.com:domain.com \ /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains' route.
Would it be equally effective just to go into virtualdomains and edit the
file?
Doesn't

I am still a newbie and unable to find a lot of things I think my qmail

the returned message was:

I am running Qmail on a Unix box with BSDI 4.0 and Apache. My client has

learning a lot, too.
Thanks for all your help. I deleted the largest from both /cur and /new.
That did not help. Since the client is also my husband, I felt safe in
reading the email to see if it were important, then deleted all the junk
from both directories. Don't know which specific email was the problem, but
