Hi, I'll appreciate any pointers regarding my problem. Searching the archives of this list, and Googling, haven't helped. If all you do is point me to better search terms, I'll be happy :-)
Summary: It appears that .qmail-* files are not being processed. I have .qmail files with "| preline /path/to/program" and "&[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in them. Apparently neither is processed. This problem arose after vpopmail was installed. And, I have another server without vpopmail on it, where I do not have this problem. I have also sent this to the qmail list. Email to the following addresses (details follow) apparently vaporizes: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] In fact, email to any address which should be handled by a .qmail file apparently vaporizes. At least, I can't figure out what is happening to it. Email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] added by vadddomain and vadduser get delivered fine. But, I need to have addresses where email is forwarded based on a .qmail file, or sent to a program based on a .qmail file. Details: It does not matter where the .qmail file is located. Some examples: /home/vpopmail/domains/naxum.com/.qmail-frederick /var/rep/data/backoffice.gonewnetmail.com/qmailalias/.qmail-achievers /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-fred Each of the above .qmail files contains "&[EMAIL PROTECTED]" on a single line, nothing else in the file. Each of the above files, and the directory they are in, are owned, respectively, by: vpopmail:vchkpw gonewnetmail:mailgroup root:qmail with permissions of -rw------- for files, and drwxr-sr-x for the directories.
