Hi All

I tried setting up tmda on Gentoo with Qmail and Vpopmail

I think it was working since I started getting no messages at all
So I sent a test message from an external domain and it didn't arrive either

It sounds like it was held in the pending queue, and a challenge issued to the sender. That's (part of!) the purpose of TMDA.

so I disabled the .qmail-defaults and stopped tmda-ofmipd
But then found a reply message in the inbox of my test message domain

That's expected I think - it's the challenge message that was issued I expect.

So I replied and got the message delivered

Which message was delivered? If .qmail-defaults was "disabled", then I'm guessing the response you sent to the challenge was delivered. If TMDA was still setup, then the original message should have been delivered.

2) is tmda-ofmipd for outgoing messages only?

Yes.

If so how do I tie qmail  to use it or
it is MUA -> tmda-ofmipd -> qmail smtp ???

Yes, the latter: MUA -> ofmipd -> qmail
