.qmail-default Problem
Hi, I have setup qmail with vpopmail. Everyting works. We have users on more machines all with [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have setup qmail for a few user on a server (1). The users can send and receive e-mail to all other domains with no problems. Only when they try to send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (this user is not on the local computer (1) ), they get an error- no user because of "bounce-no-mailbox" in .qmail-default I have: "| /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox" What do I have to put instead of "bounce-no-mailbox" to get all mail sent to the nonlocal domain1.dom users, to be sent to server2 ?

vpopmail mirror?
I can't download vpopmail no matter what it seems. The connection to www.vpopmail.cx dies a terrible slow death whenever I try to access it.

No. That will not work. I suggest
./vadduser user@domain password
Then you mount /home/vpopmail/domains on your NFS machine.

Re: [Fwd: qmail-lspawn looks for local user?]
By local users I assume you are talking about users in /etc/passwd.
For pop authentication, vchkpw will authenticate against /etc/passwd
For email delivery, vpopmail is not involved. qmail will look up
the user in /etc/passwd

Again, the PIC's answer this question. Specifically

the virtual domain account.

Question: When a virtual domain is assigned to an user like that:

Does it setuid and chdir to that user home, look for .qmail-user?
What if it finds .qmail-default (as in my case)?
I have the folowing .qmail:

How could qmail-lspawn know where I have my virtual users info? Like
/home/vpopmail/domains/*/vpasswd.

If you need any more information about the setup, just ask. I can give you insight into the vpopmail library processing that affects morerctphosts file and it's associated morercpthosts.cdb file. The vpopmail library tries to encapsulate the following processing: "Rule of thumb for large sites: Put your 50 most commonly used domains into rcpthosts, and the rest into morercpthosts." - from qmail-smtpd manual page When vadddomain is run, it counts the entries in rcpthosts file. If there are more than 20 it places the domain in morercpthosts. "You must run qmail-newmrh whenever morercpthosts changes." - from qmail-smtpd manual page The above processing is also encapsulated into the vpopmail library. So when vadddomain modifies morercpthosts it also execs qmail-newmrh. The reverse is true of vdeldomain call. It will remove the domain from rcpthosts or morercpthosts. If it removes it from morercpthosts it will exec qmail-newrh. I'm not sure how the above information fits into the problem you are observing. One thing I have noticed with vpopmail and the files. It is possible to confuse vpopmail library with strange entries in these files. If it's a new system, you might get by with cleaning out all the files and starting fresh. Ken Jones
