These are the things I looked for and can't find anything: # find / -name ".courier*"
that yields nothing. I've looked in the aliasdir directory and there are no files in there until I send mail to a non-existent user (which then creates the Maildir mbox file). Here is the mail being accepted: May 15 10:44:36 hostname courierd: started,id=0006E299.40A65704.00000861,from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,module=local ,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/usr/lib/courier/etc/aliasdi r!!,addr=<alias> The only thing I have in my userdb directory is one file with one line in it: [EMAIL PROTECTED] uid=1002|gid=1002|home=/home/vhosts/hosteddomain.com/kasper37|systempw=xxxxxxxxx Is there any way to tell exactly why courier thinks it should be putting mail in some random mbox?
