Sam, I am not running any scripts at all. This is a stock courier 0.41 install. I have successfully used courier for over a year with userdb on another system and it works great. What I don't understand is without a script, what could cause this? Where do I look for scripts? I did a ls -la on all the folders up to and including the maildir and there are no scripts. I also check /usr/lib/courier/etc/filters/active and that is empty.
I can provide access if someone can help. Also, is there a way to have courier actually log where it is getting the idea to redirect this mail(if it is some sort of script as you insist it is)? I have been trying for 4 days to resolve this, and I cant tell what config file, etc is telling this message to get removed and sent on. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Sam Varshavchik Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2003 3:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [courier-users] Re: Mail routing, default domain problem` Chester Wisniewski writes: > Did I break some un-written rule of etiquette?

The mail is delivered to the account in question, that's the first logged part. The 'newmsg' record indicates a completely new message injected into the mail server. This is what happens when the mail account's .courier file (or some other mail forwarding script), manually forwards the incoming mail. The forwarding address appears to be "techblackboard.com/chetw/", and since it does not include a mail domain, the default mail domain is appended. You're probably running some script on that account that reads received mail, chews on it, somehow, then sends it. Why your script decides to forward mail to an address called "techblackboard.com/chetw/" is something that only you can answer. So, let's see: you're running some script or a program whose presence you neglected to explicitly mention. It's doing something wrong, you haven't even posted the script, and you want to know how to fix it? Do you see something wrong with this picture? > Here is a recap: > > Actually I am looking at it a little different now, it seems that it > delivers the message, then for some reason re-writes it and adds the default > domain. Why isn't it delivering it to the maildir? > (/home/vmail/domains/techblackboard.com/chetw) You should read http://www.courier-mta.org/FAQ.html#help, which contains a list of some helpful things you can do in order to prepare a request for help that can actually contains all the needed information for someone to figure out what's happening. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
