For future searchers, I have fixed the problem. After taking a look at the name resolution on the email server, I noticed is was not correct at all. For any newbie's, if you are setting up xmail (or any other server probably), make sure you can perform 'nslookup localservername' on the box and get a valid response. If not, check your BIND (DNS) settings and correct any problems with that first. Dave

I don't have a problem starting or stopping the daemon, I have a problem adding an additional domain when using the "CtrlClnt" utility. Should I run the "CtrlClnt" utility while the mail server is running. The documentation on the website says that some files can't be edited while it is running because they are indexed. Thanks, Dave Bill Healy wrote: If you have edited any of the tab files manually try stopping xmail, removing the files from the tabindex directory and restarting xmail. See if that fixes your problem.
