Hello Jeremy, David and other ppl :-) I guess i did not exsplain my situation good enough, so ill try even harder.
My problems started around 2 months ago, when kernel 2.4.23 came out, and it was security alerts everywere. I compiled up a new kernel then and after only 1-2 days i bacame aware that my mailserver had died. Of corse i blamed the kernel. I had put in the grscurity patch with som chroot resritions and some proc restrictions, but i tryed to boot the old kernel and vpopmail still would not work. (no i did not add the pax opions in grsecurity and i know about the problems that seem to cause) I thougt it my was the chroot restictions or that vpopmail needed somthing from /proc/ I of corse tryed to add all the mailserver users to the power-user group so the would get acsess to /proc/ (exsample: oident needs this to work) wheel::10:root,oident,helix,theelg,qmaild,qmaill,qmailp,qmailq,qmailr,qmails ,vpopmail That did not work out, no changes in my problem. Sice then i of corse changed the kernel, and tryed to compleatly wipe off qmail and vpopmail and reinstall it, a number for times with atleast 15 diffrent howto`s. However, the problem it always the same, and is still the same. I have several domains attatched to my little server, and it doesent matter, if i send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] , [EMAIL PROTECTED] , [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesent matter.. the e-mail always tryes to be delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED] And if [EMAIL PROTECTED] exsist then the message is deliverd to that account, if not it bounces the mail telling me it dont exsist. I of corse have tryed to create [EMAIL PROTECTED] ant that adress are tryed to be delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED] So it seems that vpopmail thinks all domains are alias domains for spritux.com. I assure you all adresses are made from /var/vpopmail/bin/vadduser [EMAIL PROTECTED] and all domains are added like /var/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain domain.tld I also put up a qmail + vpopmail server on a FreeBSD server and that mailserver still works fine. of corse thats is a frends server, not mine. Anyway yes i reacently recompiled vpopmail, i reinstalled vpopmail and qmail just before i started mailing to this list. By reinstall i mean, that i deleted /var/vpopmail, /var/qmail, /etc/qmail, /services/, /package/ and /command/ Edited /etc/inittab end removed the line SV:123456:respawn:/command/svscanboot Then did a full install of qmail just as described in http://www.lifewithqmail.org/lwq.html and installed vpopmail like this: ---- groupadd -g 89 vchkpw useradd -g vchkpw -u 89 -d /var/vpopmail vpopmail ./configure --enable-roaming-users --enable-clear-passwd --enable-valias --e nable-sqwebmail-pass make make install-strip ---- Of corse that was before i started mailing to this list. Ive tryed setting my server to mail.spritux.com but i the message is still tryed to be deliverd to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Even if i do a ./vdeldomain spritux.com the server still tryes to send the email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Beside this vpopmail and qmail works fine, i can resive mail at the domain spritux.com and i can send mail from all domains, just not recive from other domains that spritux.com (and thats leaves me with "Not Virtual" as the topic) My best guess is i messed up a config file somewhere other that in /var/qmail /var/vpopmail and /etc/qmail (if thats possible?) cause even when i say that the server name is mail.spritux.com the server does NOT try to delviver to [EMAIL PROTECTED] it still tryes to deliver to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . The info Jeremy asked for: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/vpopmail/bin# ./vmkpasswd haavik.us [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/vpopmail/bin# That did not fix anything, nor did i atually get any output from it. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/vpopmail/bin# ./vmkpasswd vmkpasswd: usage: domain [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/vpopmail/bin# exespt the help tekst, if i dont put any domain behind it.
