As before, I have read the installation document several times, tried
searching the mail archives using google, but cannot find an answer to
the "no such domain" problem described below.

So I installed courier 0.38.1 to my RedHat 7.3 system using the
following steps:

- Create a 'courier' user and group with shell /sbin/nologin and home
  directory /var/courier, like so:
      useradd -M -d /var/courier -s /sbin/nologin courier
- Configure with the following options:
      --prefix=/usr/local/courier \
      --sysconfdir=/etc/courier \
      --localstatedir=/var/courier \
      --enable-webpass=no \
      --without-authldap \
      --without-authmysql
- make, make check, make install, and make install-configure
- Edit the /etc/courier/authdaemonrc 'authmodulelist' to just have
  "authpam".
- Edit the /etc/courier/esmtpd config file, setting ESMTPDSTART to
  "YES".
- Edit the /etc/courier/imapd config file, setting IMAPDSTART to "YES".
  Comment out the IMAP_EMPTYTRASH line.

The contents of my /etc/courier/esmtpacceptmailfor.dir/me file are:

bluemarsh.com
.bluemarsh.com

And I ran /usr/local/courier/sbin/makeacceptmailfor afterward.

I have started all the daemons using the sample init script. I can send
and receive mail with the outside world (namely my yahoo account).

When I try to send mail to myself on the same machine (that is, "mail
nfiedler", the maillog shows:

May 21 10:38:56 nuts courieresmtp:
id=00004802.3CEA862F.000008EB,from=<#@[]>,addr=<nfiedler@nuts>: No such
domain.

I have tried putting "nuts" and "localhost" in both the locals and
esmtpacceptmailfor.dir/me files to no avail.

Again, I'm sure I simply must not be clever enough to configure a
complex system such as Courier. If there is a book that anyone would
like to suggest, please let me know.
